I've just seen my first case of what can only be called Ransomware. Simply put, it locks the user into a screen that says, "This is the FBI, you've been doing something wrong and we're fining you $200. You can't use your computer until you go buy a $200 MoneyPak and give us the number for it." Seriously? Until Later! C.
