Thread: New blackmailing virus

Unbelievable. The virus encrypts your files and in order to decrypt them, you have to pay his creator!

Your files are encrypted with RSA-1024 algorithm.
To recovery your files you need to buy our decryptor.

I think the creator did an amazing job, in making such a virus!!!
but beware!!

Yeah, people who do this are plain genius and plain evil.

if i knew who sent it to me id go and kick their head in. or just tell them to fix it.

what files has it encrypted ?

How is it that they have a yahoo account, are clearly illegal, and yet the authorities cannot track them down?

The autorities CAN track them down, the authorities CANT be bothered.

Well , that's a good thought but let's c if it works ;)

I remember a long time ago, a virus was circulating that forced the victim to play a game of cards (poker or something). If the victim lost the game, their hard drive would be wiped. I thought that it was pretty impressive :)

i think i shud become a hacker and create alll kinds of viruses...LOL
