“Apart from not being a fool that is. Cryptolocker primarily spreads via email attachments, typically a PDF that claims to be from a government department or delivery service.”
I got one of those a couple weeks ago. Almost fell for it as I was expecting packages from Amazon. But there were some tells that made me suspicious.
I just got one of those PDF files a couple of days ago, supposedly from my bank. I immediately deleted it.
I checked my account, and there was no indication that they had sent me any sort of message other than the usual “your statement is ready to view” type of stuff.
