As you already know - your network and all of your data were encrypted by CONTI team. Besides the encryption process we've downloaded a large pack of your internal documents and files that will be published in case our negotiations fail. How it happens can be seen on our website. The recovery price is $1700000 (45 BTC). If you want to make sure we can recover all of your data - you can send us the two files of your choice and we will decrypt them free of charge. If we reach mutual agreement your will be provided with decryption tool, none of your internal data will be published and you will be provided with security tips on how to avoid further breaches. We strongly recommend to review our offer in a timely manner to avoid additional expenses from your side on security software and on building the new network from scratch. The example data pack will be provided soon, which will include part of the file tree list and some actual data you can review.

Victim
how do we know if you are able to recover our machines?
04/06/2021, 15:26:48
You can provide two random low-value encrypted files and we will decrypt them as a proof and upload back
04/06/2021, 15:27:25
Gang
It took you two days to download files from review? We are not that patient and you should be more operative otherwise we will consider you stalling
04/06/2021, 15:28:02
Gang
Victim

Victim
additionally, my higher up are requesting additional proofs because you are asking 45btc which is quite a lot of money.
04/06/2021, 21:52:18
What proof do you need? We showed that we can decrypt files Select any 2 files from the listing archive and we will discard them to you
04/06/2021, 22:09:21

Read about us on the Internet - we work honestly. It is much more profitable to conclude an agreement with us than to incur losses
