Do you ever think a virus can speak to you? It seems like the Ransomware does.  The Reveton Ransomware that prevents victims from using their computers and displays rogue message , has been upgraded - now it speaks to victim, according to TrendMicro.

Ransomware, also referred as cryptotrojans, is a kind of malware that restricts access to the computer system that it infects. Usually it will display a fake message in full screen (victims can't close or access anything) , purporting to come from law enforcement agencies in various countries and instruct victims to pay a fine for allegedly accessing or storing illegal content on their computers.


Interestingly , The latest variant also plays a audio message urging users to pay ransom.



"The user won’t need a translator to understand what the malware is saying – it speaks the language of the country where the victim is located." The researcher says.

Unlike the previous variants, this variant also connects to specific url to send and receive information from a remote user , downloads an encrypted .dll and WAVE file.
