Police Warns Users of New Deadly Ransomware Scam & Urge Not to Pay the Bitcoin R

[Goodcat49]

A new deadly virus known as Dharma is seriously infecting computers (PCs) and servers by encrypting and locking files, which can only be successfully unlocked via a Bitcoin payment, responsible authorities warned on October 16, 2018.

The Cybercrime Police Unit is strongly cautioning all users to take natural precautions and to not pay a single Bitcoin as a ransom in the event their PCs are infected or infiltrated.

Paying Bitcoin as Ransom
Dharma, a new cryptoware, is targeting the PCs and servers of firms, offices and users via emails with misleading titles and via insecure websites.

Once Dharma has entered a PC or server, the virus encrypts kept files via asymmetric cryptography, and completely locks the contents of the PCs and servers.

As of right now, there isn't any efficient way or software for the restoration of the damaged files, according to the cyber crime department.

Because of that, they have demanded that the public quickly takes the natural precautions.
