Wait roughly 6 hours, I will send you your decrypter and key which can be used to decrypt all files encrypted by the ransomware. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ YOU HAVE ONE WEEK, AFTER ONE WEEK DECRYPTING YOUR FILES WILL BECOME $5000 REPORTING THIS FILE TO ANYONE WILL RESULT IN A FULL LOSS OF FILES FAILING TO PAY WILL RESULT IN YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS SUCH AS: - IP - Address - Username - Emails and passwords - Discord Account BEEN SOLD ON THE DARKWEB
