Bonjour,

Une fiche BleepingComputer sur le ransomware PadCrypt :

PadCrypt: The first ransomware with Live Support Chat and an Uninstaller (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/padcrypt-the-first-ransomware-with-live-support-chat-and-an-uninstaller/)

Citer
A new ransomware was discovered by @abuse.ch and further analyzed by MalwareHunterTeam called PadCrypt that offers for the first time a live support chat feature and an uninstaller for its victims. CryptoWall was the first ransomware to provide customer support on their payment sites, but PadCrypt's use of live chat allows victims to interact with malware developers in real time. A feature like this could potentially increase the amount of payments as the victim can receive "support" and be guided on the confusing process of making a payment.
