Malware Creators Fine-Tune Marketing Tactics Before Holiday Season; Offer Free Trial Version

Cybercrooks offer irate victims a free trial version of the tool that will allow them to salvage three precious files. Trojan.Crypt.VB.U encrypts or locks files on the host computer and tells users to buy $69 full version.

Newer versions are more efficient than the older ones as they only select and lock a few vital files from an application folder.”]
