We take you seriously and we want to work something out but $50k is too much for us to get our computers back. COVID ruined our finances and we have entire lots of cars from last year sitting outside that no one is interested in because no one is driving anymore. Can we work out a reduction in the price?

Thanks for working with us. I'm not sure if that's going to be enough of a discount but I will talk with my boss and see what we can do. We see different names for the notes on each computer with different keys in them. Does the price include unlocking all of our computers?

Sorry we haven't reached out in a little while but we have been trying to figure all this out while keeping the business running. We want to make sure you are able to decrypt more than just one system. Can you decrypt these files to show you can?

File 1

File 2

Pulling these down now. I talked to my boss and he said we can't pay in Monero do you accept Bitcoin?

Ok that's good to know. My boss wanted to see if you would be willing to let us pay $10,000 for the decryption. We know it's not what you are asking for but this is short notice and we are trying to do what we can to find available cash.

OK, my boss had someone willing to loan him some money if he needed to. Will you take $20,000? We could buy the Bitcoin and get you the money in 24 hours.

OK, let me talk to my boss and get back to you.

Just so I'm clear that payment would get us a decryptor for all our encrypted computers?

OK we are working on getting the money together right now. Did you take any files from our computers? And how fast after we pay could we get the decryption software?

OK thats good to know but my boss still wanted to know about whether or not you guys took our data before we sent the money.

What did you take?

We still want to move forward with payment for the decryptor we are just trying to understand what data was taken because it could impact our customers and we care about them. If you can give us a list of files it would help us a lot. Can you confirm that the bitcoin wallet is still [redacted]? Will you help us if something goes wrong with the decryption?

We want to make payment today if you can confirm the wallet for us. We don't want to send it to the wrong place.

thanks for verifying.

we are getting ready to make payment. Are you able to provide us a Dir listing of what you exfil'd?

It took us longer yesterday than we thought to get the money together. We should be able to buy the bitcoin and send you payment today.

OK, it was difficult to get everything done on the weekend since the banks were closed most of the time but we should be making payment very soon. I just wanted to confirm that the price is still $25,000. The site shows 0.77 BTC which is $25,569 and there is a reference to Bitcoin (+10%). As long as we pay the agreed $25,000 you will decrypt all of our files on all computers right?
