No surprise. Bitcoin has been the ultimate payment tool for "getting rid" of ransom ware as is being promised when payment is completed. Right now it's either Western Union and MoneyGram that is being used for such purposes, but Bitcoin is far more interesting since it can be sent over instantly without leaving any trails behind. But I have always said it, never reward these criminals as it only gives them more incentive to continue doing this. Just make sure you at all times have an active and recent backup that you can fall back on. Just secure erase the drive, and problem solved.
Wonderwing when bitcon will be used as ransomware on movie.
