How Hackers Can Hold Your Files To Ransom by DKJaleel: 1:44pm On Nov 21, 2013 |
Though i found this news/article to be of great help, but what disturbed me was a comment (the 2nd) about nigerians.. Britain's National Crime Agency (NCA) has issued a warning to businesses over a wave of hacking attacks that have seen hackers take control of computer files and demand a £900 ransom to unlock each one. http://m.yahoo.com/w/legobpengine/news/your-money-or-your-documents--how-hackers-can-hold-your-files-to-ransom-180113005.html?orig_host_hdr=uk.news.yahoo.com&.intl=GB&.lang=en-GB |

the bad comment, made by one Blitz Curiosity killed the cat? If its in the spam; don't get tempted by it, delete it. If its doing you a favour, it is not. If its African, its Nigerian, and they are a bent Nation full of thieves. In short; if you don't know the sender at all; bin it without being curious. If its important and you have binned it; it was probably a summons, so you did the right thing. Curiosity Killed the Cat; remember that, and you will never end up looking a right Pr--t. |
