Baltimore Ransomware Attack Takes Strange Twist

A newly created Twitter account on May 12 posted what purports to be a screenshot of sensitive documents and user credentials from the city of Baltimore. Researchers say it could either be from the attacker, a city employee, or someone with access to the documents. The city is still recovering from the May 7 attack, which has disrupted everything from real estate transactions to bill payments for residents. City officials previously have said they have no plans to pay the ransom. The Robbinhood ransom note demanded $17,600 in bitcoin per system, a total of about $76,280.”]
