New Petya Ransomware

[Deleted member 2913]

I was just browsing & was on a trusted site & just clicked on MI5 Mobile introductory offer & system freezed & app 5 mins later there was beep sound & system restarted & on boot got a red skull.

Guess its a new Petya version.

Later managed to find the sample.

Would anyone like to test or analyze it?

Well that was bad luck but i guess you managed to recover your system from the infection from a backup which is good.

Well i guess i got taken as well for an April fool.

What bad luck, how did you managed to recover your system?!

I'm curious to know how many people actually fell for it.

Hah-hah, @yesnoo got me on another forum...

I know. On the VoodooShield thread at Wilders. Saw it, but decided to not spoil the joke here.
