Phishing Campaign Impersonates Interpol to Deliver Ransomware

Bitdefender reports an active phishing campaign targeting small businesses across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States that impersonates Interpol investigators. Victims receive emails linking to a Proton Drive password-protected archive (password included in the email) which purports to contain video evidence but instead installs malware that encrypts drives and demands a ransom; researchers warn to verify such communications through official channels before opening files.
