yeah that sucks but we have to deal with it.

Still I don't understand it. They have collected tens of thousands of coins. How can they spend all of them without getting caught?

I guess they will just sit on them for years and hope they get forgotten about.

Dell SecureWorks estimates that CryptoLocker has infected 250,000 victims. The average payout is $300 each, and millions in laundered Bitcoin have been tracked and traced to the ransomware's money runners.

Don't take this lightly. The virus has already infected 250k systems. It is causing massive negative publicity to Bitcoin.
