Independent malware researcher "MalwareHunter" has discovered a new version of the Wanna Decryptor ransomware, calling itself Wana Decrypt0r 2.0. The virus uses .WNCRY file extension which it adds to the files encrypted by the virus. Then, the ransomware drops a ransom note with the following content:

Ooops, your files have been encrypted!
What Happened to My Computer?
Your important files are encrypted.
Many of your documents, photos, videos, databases and other files are no longer
accessible because they have been encrypted. Maybe you are busy looking for a way to
recover your files, but do not waste your time. Nobody can recover your files without
our decryption service.

Can I Recover My Files?
Sure. We guarantee that you can recover all your files safely and easily. But you have
not so enough time.
You can decrypt some of your files for free. Try now by clicking <Decrypt>.
But if you want to decrypt all your files, you need to pay.
You only have 3 days to submit the payment. After that the price will be doubled.

We will have free events for users who are so poor that they couldn't pay in 6 months.

This is definitely not the end of it. Who knows what tactic the ransomware developers will try next.

Just be careful and do not open email attachments from unknown sources...
