Correct, I was interested in how you had samples for testing, are you a researcher? :)

It is usually clear to users when their computer is held to ransome. As ransomeware is complex and ever evolving I refer users with infected machines to our malware removal forum.

There (https://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?288-quot-BEFORE-You-POST-quot-(Please-read-this-Procedure-Before-Requesting-Assistance)-Updated&p=1150&viewfull=1#post1150) a volunteer analyst can advise them and provide information to help in avoiding further infections.

As we know, clean backups are important especially when someone is facing the loss of irreplaceable photos and important files.

Best regards.
