Unzip them
I did. Here's where I am at now:
That's a multifile split for when we needed to upload them to places where a max upload limit was set. You need to select all and unzip them. Your un zipper should be able to find the pattern and unzip as one. I don't think you will be able to do anything if you unzip one by one
Looks like a lot of viruses Trojans IMO. If they bury the files in a lot of zipped folders I think they're trying to avoid antivirus detection. Send files to virus total
I second this. Scan everything before unzipping, and if you can know what the target files should contain beforehand.
Honestly, in 20 years of using Macs, I have never had to worry about viruses
Had to? No. Should have, especially when extracting unknown files with a weird structure? Absolutely. BSD malware very much exists, which means Mac malware exists. You may have not felt the need to worry, but you very much should have been careful.
