Identify and Avoid Crypto Viruses

A crypto virus can really ruin your day. They are a form of ransomware which encrypts your data then demands a ransom be paid to the cyber-crooks to get your files back. But you can avoid crypto viruses by knowing how to identify them and taking a few steps to avoid infection and quickly recover your files if you do get infected. These viruses may look innocent and even viable but there are some ways to identify whether this is a "real" email or a crypto virus.
