RobbinHood Ransomware is now using street cred to force victims to pay
The operators behind the
RobbinHood ransomware have changed their language in the ransom note, at least
in one variant of the malware, to take from victims all hope of decrypting
the files for free and to make them pay for the recovery. Boastful and arrogant
in their message, the cybercriminals point to past incidents involving their
ransomware, which ended with victims paying much more than the ransom demand.
