Protect your Computer against the Petya Ransomware Attack
My Dear Online Entrepreneurs,
Every computer user in the world should be extremely careful against this malicious threat to the information stored in our computer. To release the usage of your computer back to you, they demand a ransom of about $300.00 and up.
Please, please...I encourage everyone to be very careful of suspicious links and suspicious emails.
And also, make sure you have some types of great security software installed on your computer. I cannot recommend wich one to use. But, I encourage you to make a wise decision in that aspect.
Happy and Safe Surfing!
From your fellow Online Entrepreneur,

Good reminder - but the majority of computers that get attacked are computers that are running pirated operating software.
This is why countries such as China get hit the hardest because 90% of the computers there run pirated software and when you do that you do not get any updates or patches and it makes you vulnerable.
If you’re running a legit version of software and update it when notified and you have up to date anti-virus software and as you mentioned you DO NOT click on links from any emails and such you’re not familiar with, then you have nothing to worry about.
