Subject: Another new ransomware
Hi All,
I found possible new ransomware at a site today.
There were many dbf files that had been renamed. For example:
HS_0WIN.DBF
was renamed to:
[email protected]
I tried renaming this file back but it was corrupt. Looking in the
file it seemed scrambled (probably encrypted?).
I found these all over the place. Did not find a ransom note.
I'm guessing 'hairullah' wants money to decrypt these.
Luckily this site had a backup only a few hours old.
