There's a new extortion trojan in circulation.While we don't usaully concern ourselves with viruses, etc, this one appears to be an attempt to steal credit card details,
This one attempts to steal victims' money by bullying them to pay a "pre-trial settlement" to cover a "Copyright holder fine".
The victim is informed that an "Antipiracy foundation scanner" has found illegal torrents from the system. If he won't pay $400 (via a credit card transaction), he might face jail time and huge fines.
