Now i'm really curious if they calculate the prices based on the files they encrypt. Do you know if it was some kind of spear phishing attack or just a regular ransomware variant? Any sources? thx!

- Bartweiss 10y agoI've heard of some non-scripted ransomware that "phones home". If it points you to an email exchange with the scammer, there's room for a person to sound you out, maybe google you or work off your email address and information reported by the ransomware.
