Popcorn Time Ransomware .

Thumbs Down 
Just been reading about this nasty ransomware on Wired. It will decrypt your files if you infect two other users. https://www.wired.com/2016/12/popcorn-time-ransomware/?mbid=social_twitter

I wouldn't fall for it and besides if you do infect two other user, if they find out it was you, you can get yourself into a lot of trouble Sad

Okay, obviously there is some confusion. I did not mean you Brian, you are a great PC Repair Tech. I learn so much from you, you speak the truth and I have gotten better with my IT because of you and so I apologise if my message sounded like it was at you. I was referring to the cyber criminals! When I said "how dare you deceive the people, you have no class"Sad I mean't "How dare they deceive the people, they have no class" Sad Not you

I hope I have cleared this up and again I apologies for the confusion, I hope we can still be buddies, mate
