You need pay for decrypt your files. Your price is 200.000$

Your network was hacked, workstations encrypted and we downloaded many private information from your servers. Note that we have also downloaded a lot of data from your network that in case of not making payment will be published on our website. If you will spend 3 days in silence we will start publushing the information.

Sorry for the delay, we've been having a lot of internal meetings and want to work with you.

We understand your problems. But we also see your turnover and the amount of information we downloaded from your network. Your losses, if the information reaches the public, will be tens of times more than we asked. make your offer, you haven't given a single digit yet.

Okay; as part of our conversations last night I was told to ask about getting a sample of data you might have taken

5/17/2021, 2:45:15 PM

We have your accounting, legal documents, finance, contracts and personal correspondence, DB, that's all I can say. It's about 50 Gigabate. You will receive a complete list of files after payment as well as a log of their removal from our server.

Also, would we be able to get access to the data you have taken? Or something else like a file Tree?

5/20/2021, 9:38:47 AM

Your price for file tree & non-recoverable deletion of all the leaked information, and decpryptor for your network is $100.000. And we agree. We will not be able to make less than this proposal. Think about it.

Decryptor: 1) Launch the decryptor under Administrative rights 2) Wait till the decryptor window is closed 3) if any of the files haven't changed the extension back to the original - repeat 1 and 2

We have files that won't decrypt on several systems. I'm providing a few of those samples if you can update the decryption tool.

Your decryption tool left the extension to thousands, how do we go about removing the extension to thousands of files without potentially corrupting files that might still need to be decrypted.

5/24/2021, 8:05:36 PM

Really need that updated decryption tool. I've got thousands of files that I can't use and If I self remove thousands of extensions I fear that the files will be corrupted. You promised a working decryption key.
