Cyber Crooks’ New Low: Fake Samaritans Extort Ransomware Victims for Bitcoin Bounty

Beware the cyber wolf in researcher’s clothing! Ransomware victims, meet your faux savior. Offering a hack-back service for a mere 5 Bitcoin, this digital double-crosser masquerades as a security guru. But alas, it’s just a re-extortion ruse. Stay sharp; these criminals don’t come with capes.

Hot Take:

Oh, the audacity! Just when you thought your digital nightmare was over, along comes a faux-caped crusader promising to delete your stolen data for a fee that would make Batman go broke. Call it a 'ransomware remix' – because apparently, getting hit once is just not enough these days.
