Jokeroo Ransomware as a Service Pulls an Exit Scam

Tor sites for Jokeroo Ransomware as a Service (RaaS) have started displaying a notice stating that their server was seized by the Royal Thai Police in conjunction with the Dutch National Police and Europol. It turns out that this notice is fake and the RaaS is performing an exit scam. Exit scams are being more common as law enforcement increases pressure on illegal activities on Tor and criminal sites. The takedown of Jokeroo is a coordinated effort by law enforcement agencies from Thailand and The Netherlands, Europol.
