If you are from UK or you are into BTC you surely heard of hackers who attacked NHS (hospitals mostly) in Uk with ransomware that encrypts HDDs and demands Bitcoin.

Ransomware called cryptolocker (and variations) that encrypts your whole HDD and demands BTC. Actually when you pay BTC - they give you key to unlock all lost data. Just this time this people attacked hospitals.. No comment on this.

Within a week they infected 200k machines but after tracking their BTC adresses - they made "only" 50k USD for this.

The news were top1 in UK and even CNBC International got on them

The virus/attack is called WannaCry and here are the tree wallets (if you wanna google or so).
