The LockBit ransomware gang has apparently struck again, having purportedly stolen 103GB worth of files from Bangkok Airways and promising to release them tomorrow, on Tuesday.

"LockBit ransomware gang has announced Bangkok Airways on the victim list," DarkTracer tweeted.

ALERT] LockBit ransomware gang has announced Bangkok Airways on the victim list.

A day earlier, on Thursday, Bangkok Airways publicly acknowledged that it had been blasted with a cyberattack a week ago, on Monday, Aug. 23.

Bangkok Airways recommends that passengers contact their bank or credit-card provider and change any compromised passwords ASAP. Also, it recommended that passengers keep their eyes out for suspicious or unsolicited calls and/or emails - particularly phishing attempts claiming to be coming from Bangkok Airways that attempt to gather personal data.

Bangkok Airways won't be contacting customers to ask for payment-card details or the like, it said.
