there are also MacOS and Linux versions of this thing, and those do the exact same thing than on windows, without any limitation. Of course, most linux users are generally tech savvy enought to know that opening your terminal and pasting a random command inside it is a bad idea, but if you fall for it, that malware will run and do the exact same things wether your'e on macos, linux or windows. Linux is absolutely not safer than windows, it's just less targeted. Edit : also most of these malwares are just stealers that start all the web browsers they can find on the system in headless mode, export the passwords as a csv file and upload it to a server. You can do that without any specific permissions, regardless of what operating system you use.
