There was a video posted yesterday at MT about the Troldesh ransomware. This particular malware is a bit different in that an email link is provided to enable the victim to enter into discussion with the Blackhats.

It reminded me of a Checkpoint blog post from June where one of their researchers, Natalia Kolesova (she has such beautiful hair!), responded to the email and played around with them. If you haven't read it before, follow the link for a few giggles:
