Default Intel causes ransomware kid to sell his business

A teen malware writer who was doing well off the back of his ransomware software wants to sell up after being discovered by Intel security experts.

According to Network World a bloke called Tox was granting access to a software kit that makes it easy to lock up the hard drives on victims’ PCs, then skim 20 percent of the take from those who actually use the kit to extort payments.

In a few days he was laughing all the way to the bank, until those pesky researchers from Intel found him on his dark web site..
