- YOUR FILES ARE ENCRYPTED Your files, documents, photos, databases and other important files are encrypted. You are not able to decrypt it by yourself! The only method of recovering files is to purchase an unique private key. Only we can give you this key and only we can recover your files. To be sure we have the decryptor and it works you can send an email: [email protected] and decrypt one file for free. Before paying you can send us up to 1 file for free decryption. The total size of files must be less than 1Mb (non archived), and files should not contain valuable information. (databases,backups, large excel sheets,sql. etc.) Do you really want to restore your files? Write to email: [email protected] Your personal ID is indicated in the names of the files, before writing a message by email - indicate the name of the ID indicated in the files IN THE SUBJECT OF THE EMAIL Attention! * Do not rename encrypted files. * Do not try to decrypt your data using third party software, it may cause permanent data loss. * Decryption of your files with the help of third parties may cause increased price (they add their fee to our) or you can become a victim of a scam.
