This virus comes as an email attachment with "your" email address showing on the "from" note....it looks deceivingly legitimate and really fucks things up...especially if your business is on a network of computers. It attaches to all "word" files and "adobe" files so you can no longer view them.

it hit all of our excel customer database files which was the worst. At least we had paper backups but it was a lot of manual reinputting. For larger systems I can see why they would pay the crazy ransom.

Sounds like a team effort to me. I hope they get caught.
