A Brit public sector-owned office supplies company shrugged off a ransomware demand for 102 Bitcoins after a staffer opened a phishing email.

Kent-based Commercial Services Group (CSG) was struck by ransomware deployed by a "foreign criminal organisation" in early April. A local blogger, publishing the Vox Medway site, claimed the attack froze all CSG services at 01:30 UK time on 2 April.
