Ransomware attack
#9
Hm. This is the first I've heard of this. Where have I been, I guess. I wonder if it affects Mac's. Usually not, but I wouldn't be surprised if hackers/viruses are getting smarter... I need to do some research. I do hard-drive backups, but it's a good idea to turn off internet while doing so anyway.

*Edit: Actually, I have heard of this...but have not heard of it happening to Mac's. But I'm sure it could. Unfortunately, my parents fell for a similar scam and were out nearly a thousand dollars. It's really sad because the fact that they don't know much about technology and are so trusting has not been a benefit. Sad
