Topic: Ransomware + Altcoins ? - page 2. (Read 1247 times)
i wonder anyone really pays money to the ransomware? Definitely they will blackmail again even after they paid.
Most people (hackers included) still don't know that Bitcoin is not anonymous and can be traced.
Of course the hackers know that...

And they need a mean to get funds, a mean that is accessible to the weakling that wants to pay the ransom.
If they ask for a coin that cannot be bought in most countries directly for fiat, it's #FAIL. And this makes the list very short, excluding (from what I know) all the anonymous coins.
And then why not just stick to Bitcoin?

Makes a lot more sense to ask for monero than bitcoin for your ransom payment.
Maybe on a later future they could ask for LTC, Ethereum (ETH or ETC) or whatever. It is quite possible.
P.S. I think that the first ransomware was CryptoLocker and the creator was found to be a russian hacker so, yes, you could say that ransomware's origin is Russia.
P.S.2 I did read the article, but I could send you 10 FAIL coins as I don't think I was infected by your ransomware.
