Description
(Malwarebytes) Ransom.GlobeImposter is a ransomware application that will encrypt
files on a victim machine and demand payment to retrieve the information.
Ransom.GlobeImposter is also known as Fake Globe due to how the software mimics the
Globe ransomware family. Ransom.GlobeImposter may be distributed through a
malicious spam campaign, recognizable only with their lack of message content and an
attached ZIP file. This type of spam is called a “blank slate.” Ransom.GlobeImposter is
also distributed via exploits and malicious advertising, fake updates, and repacked
infected installers.
