Tchibo sells negative scanner with a virus surprise

German retailer Tchibo has been selling a virus-laden negative scanner in its stores and online shop. The device was exclusively sold through the German retailer. It was infected with the Win32/Conficker.B virus which rose to notoriety four years ago when it caused infections around the globe. The scanner was sold for 60 (approximately 48) and can be safely used after the virus has been removed with a modern anti-virus application. The company is offering affected customers refunds for the devices but also says that they can be used after they are removed.”]
