REvil

Good evening Sir/Madam. I'm [redacted], and I was asked by the [redacted]'s 
executives to assist them in completing a business arrangement with you.
 I'm neither a technological expert nor a lawyer. I have a financial 
background and currently work in the public sector here in the [redacted]. As 
you probably understand, we would like to complete this unfortunate 
event as swift and clean as possible. Kindly let me know how should I 
call you and when should I expect your reply. Respectfully, [redacted].

Thank you Sir/Madam. I have no idea what kind of proposal I should make
 to you. We are an [redacted] charity run by [redacted]. We get money, 
public funds, and I have no experience in this occurrence. We are not a 
business. I understand that we need to pay a certain amount in order to 
get our systems back to full operation. Am I right? Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir/Madam, do you mean what is the amount we can pay in order to restore our systems? Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir/Madam, do you mean what is the amount we can pay in order to restore our systems? Respectfully, [redacted]

Sorry Sir/Madam, for sending twice. I'm a bit overwhelmed by stress and this experience.

Sir/Madam, I honestly don't know. I see that you request 4 Million USD 
which is almost 3M GBP. We will never be able to pay this amount. Should
 I now tell you how much we are willing to pay? Is this what you mean? 
My apologies to be very cautious. I don't want any mistake to happen 
here. It is the future of 50,000 pupils. Young kids. Respectfully, 
[redacted]

Sir/Madam, I understand. Please allow me to consult. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir/Madam, I'm here and after intense conversations and internal 
consultations as you might imagine. Please refrain from hostile 
language. I will appreciate it. I was instruct to further elaborate with
 you couple of points, obviously after I did my own research about you 
and your highly professional capability and status.

Thanks Sir/Madam. I appreciate that. (1) What type of information will 
you provide upon completing the deal? (2) What type of information are 
you currently possessing? (3) How can I guarantee that data will not be 
further monetized upon completion of our deal? Thanks much in advance. 
[redacted]

Thanks Sir. I will convey this and revert shortly. Respectfully, Emilie

Thank you Sir. I believe that the last offer will not be required, 
however, I will be extremely thankful if you could at least tell me what
 information you have in your possession. I believe that this 
information is of utmost importance to determine the amount the charity 
will pay. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, I could not red your last message. Was it deleted deliberately? Respectfully, [redacted]

My apologies for typo. I meant "read".

Thank you Sir. I understand that. Mistakes happen at all times. We are 
all humans. I will forward your reply. What does this mean: 
[redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] Is this a
 file? or a directory? I want to ask you in order not to look 
unprofessional in the eyes of my colleagues. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, does it suppose to mean anything of importance? Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, you mean Credit Card details of the Charity owners? Is this what 
you have in your possession? I'm asking again in order not to cause any 
confusion, and the guarantee an decision making process which is based 
on accurate data. Thanks, [redacted]

Ohh, I understand. Thank you. I'll revert, hopefully tonight. Respectfully, [redacted].

Yes Sir. I do understand. And I'm confident enough in your wisdom to 
present me with an attractive information, in order to present your most
 valuable assets. Credit card information of employees is probably the 
most attractive asset. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, I'm aware of that. I will present a significant amount in my early
 AM tomorrow. The relevant decision makers are currently consulting. 
Thanks for your understanding. Respectfully, [redacted]

Good morning Sir.. Your TOR website is offline for quite some time now.
 Is it ok to continue using this platform? Respectfully. [redacted]

I got the mandate to make you an offer. Please let me know if it's ok to make it now?

Thanks Sir. We can pay 750,000 USD in XMR, provided that you will share
 with me the exact scope, volume, and significance of data that is in 
your possession. I would like to stress that this amount is far beyond 
what we understand is usually charged by your teams (based on recent 
news reports. I've turned to be an expert on your business in the last 3
 days, Fortunately or unfortunately.) I do stress the data, rather than 
the decryption key, since I learned about your very positive reputation 
in providing decryption keys. Looking forward hearing your thoughts. 
Respectfully, [redacted].

Sorry, you mean 3 Million USD?

Oh God. No, this is so far of what we can pay. Please hold and I'll report to my colleagues and revert. Respectfully, [redacted].

Sir, we will not be able to pay that amount. Please advise. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, thank you for this frank answer. Your "client", my colleagues, are
 not a company, and it seems that your reply is of a general nature. We 
are a charity fund, [redacted] non-profit, and our resources are all 
public resources. I will be able to come back to my colleagues, once you
 provided me with any information which will make them re-evaluate their
 decision. One of your colleagues, in a recent interview, said that you 
don't like to bargain. So please, I'll appreciate if you will find me as
 a genuine partner with whom you share information in order to craft a 
deal which works for both of us. Respectfully, [redacted].

Thank you Sir. I appreciate your advise, however this can't be 
cosidered a valuable advise. I will need to understand the percularities
 of what you wrote above: (1) Publication of which information? (2) What
 do you mean soon? (even if we agree tomorrow, it will take 3-4 days of 
official approval and execution) and (3) what is the additional 
discount? Thank you for understanding, and I really grateful for your 
willingness to assist. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, your proposal set the price tag for publishing unknown information
 on 2.4M USD. I see no scenario that the charity board and trustees will
 approve this by tomorrow, in order to be executed by Saturday. Sir, if 
you want to take advantage of my expreienced services in deal making you
 will have to allow me (1) details of information you have, as this and 
the decryption keys are the corner stone of any decision which will be 
taken, and (2) set a reasonable price for a non-profit charity around 
800-900K, to be paid at some point next week. I'll be here, throughout 
this process, to make sure that we are progressing as planned. 
Respectfully, [redacted].

Good morning Sir. My sincere apologies for not replying last night. I 
was cought up at another event. I will forward this information to the 
relevant people and contact you back later during the day. I thank you 
for all the assistnce you provide in order to terminate this unpleasent 
affair. Respectfully, [redacted].

Sir, are you one person or few people rotating in shifts. Asking 
because you are always available, and always accesible. And are you the 
one who can finalize a deal or you need any approval from higher level? 
Respectfully, [redacted]

Thanks. Ok. I working on our case in the next couple of hours. Will revert as soon as I have information. Respectfully, [redacted].

Sir, one of the trustees of the charity have asked me in private what 
are the chances of bringing the price down to 900K USD? He shared with 
me her internal conversations and her belief, like you and me, that a 
deal is better than any publication. However, she said, reviewing the 
information you sent will not convice the relevant people to pay that 
amount of many. It's about "risk management" she said. Decryption keys 
and that information should cost around 1M. What would be your answer to
 her? Please keep in mind that she is sharing her thoughts with me in 
private and I'm not that sure that she represents any majority. Please 
consult with the boss and let me know? Respectfully, [redacted]

I'll be back to this computer in 2-3 hours, Sir. Thanks. [redacted]

Sir, I'm thrilled. Thanks a lot. I'll convey this in my meeting with 
board and trustees in the morning. First time in last days that I'm 
going to bed with a smile. I'll contact you for further communication 
and updates in the morning. Best regards, [redacted]

Good morning Sir. Board and trustees of the charity will convene in 1.5
 hours. I'm in direct contact, as I shared with you yesterday with one 
of the trustees, and she will update me immedietly after the meeting, 
even before the official statement. Respectfully, [redacted]

Sir, may I ask you a direct question? It's important that you will be 
completely honest with me, and if you don't know the answer, I would 
appreciate if you could check with the boss. Are you still interfering 
with our systems? Do you do any actions related to our employees? 
Awaiting your answer, [redacted]

Sir, I wish I could have brought you into the trustees meeting. In the 
middle of meeting when they discuss paying your suggested price, came 
this notice of your continued efforts to sabotage the charity network. 
With all due respect, Sir, do you think it was necessary? Do you think 
it was helpful? I'm doing a tremendous effort to show everyone your 
nice, welcoming and human face, and you keep on your evil moves? How 
should I show my face now? I guess that you haven't understood that you 
and me are working together to bring this deal? You have to assist me, 
not work against me..!

Are you completely confident about that Sir? I'ts not only your reputation here, it's mine as well. Thanks, [redacted]

Ok. I trust on that. I'll further communicate tonight. I need to go 
back, with this information, to do some damage control, and it starts to
 be late into the weekend. I'll come back later this evening. 
Respectfully, [redacted].

Good evening Sir, as I predicted on Wednesday or Thursday (sorry, last 
week was like crazy hell for me, very little sleep, very stressful, and 
almost no time for my young kids), the charity's leaderhip could not 
make a decision before the weekend. As predicted they asked me to ask 
you to delay reply until after the weekend (Monday afternoon), as well 
as to seek, if possible, additional discount to 1M. I told them, 
bluntly, that I'm not sure about additional discount, becasue from what I
 understood from you, what your boss already approved was beyond the 
ususal discount you give. I left board meeting really frustrated, first 
of all on a personal level, due to the fact that I thought I will have a
 quite weekend, handing over our correspondance to the person who will 
take care of execution and buying the XMR, but also because I have no 
face to disspoint you. I know that you expect an answer, and I feel bad 
that I can't deliver any positive results at the moment. I need to ask 
you for an extension. I'll be here to reply to all your notes, to 
provide you with any background information you need, and even if you 
want to exchange weekend receipies. Board and trustees will reconvene 
after the weekend, on Monday morning, and on the positive side, it gives
 me time to talk and to be successful in persuading them to complete the
 deal in order to recover all systems by Tuesady/Wednesdy. Thanks in 
advance for you understandging. I really appreciate it. Respectfully, 
[redacted].

Thank a lot, Sir, for understanding. I will be in close touch also 
during the weekend. Best and have good night. Tell your boss that you 
deserve some time off and a good drink. Emilie

Please also update the countdown of the clock at the bottom of our corresponding page? Thanks, Emilie.

Ok, maybe I'm a bit confused. I trust you. Good night Sir.

Good evening Sir. I hope that you took some time off to be with your 
family. I'm here to answer any question. Respectfully, [redacted].

Good evening Sir. The IT team have sent me a file, which they kindly 
ask you to decrypt in order to see, as mentioned in your early note and 
here on this website, the the decryption tool actually work. I will try 
to attach it now. Respectfully, [redacted].

Good morning Sir, I could not sleep the whole night. Thanks for the file, I'll be in touch later this morning. Thanks, [redacted].

This was written couple of hours ago, but apparently there was a fault in your system and it was sent just now.

Thanks, I'm here. I would like to ask you, first, informally (before I 
speak to "my" trustee in the board). Is there any chance that you will 
be able to extend the deadline for Wednesday evening? The reason I'm 
asking is because there was some government move to our senior 
leadership, and I'm afraid that they were asked not to pay. I can tell 
you that the majority of board members want to complete the deal, as 
it's the only way they can restore the system, but it seems that the 
weekend brought with it also pressure in the opposite direction. Would 
love to hear your boss opinion on that. Respectfully, [redacted]

This is why I'm checking with you Sir. The board of the charity is 
meeting in 1:30 hours, (2 PM GMT), and I want to bring them the most 
updated information from you. At the moment, you were kindly offering 
the charity to pay 1.5M and deadline is tonight. If I could get an extra
 "stretch" (as you wrote) to pay 1M, and deadline is Wednesday morning, 
that would have been very helpful to get the board and trustees 
approval, despite any other external voices. Please bring it to the boss
 approval. Anything of this will make my mission more likely to succeed.
 Thanks in advance, [redacted].

I understand. May I speak with the boss? Can he come to the chat? Can I give him an email address?

Please, you can't leave me with this answer. I see that boss can't do 
Wednesday, and I understand his and your perspective. Will it be 
possible to leave price as it is, and give time decision time until 
Tuesday night? If it was not this external inputs, I'm confident that I 
could have sort it out by myself. Thanks, [redacted]

Please reply Sir, I'll be back in an hour. Need to go and prepare for board meeting. A women, you know.

I see, Sir. I can't ask more, and I don't beg. If you can extend the 
deadline until Tuesday - it will be helpful with the board in 5 minuets.
 If you are not interested - I will not be happy with it, as it will be 
more difficult for me to persuade board and trustees to complete the 
deal, but - I will understand. As said, I'm a woman who respects herself
 and her partners. I will not beg. Respectfully, [redacted]

So Sir, what are my option, currently??

My options, I mean. 
1.5M until tonight or 2.4M until Wednesday? 
Or can you do 1.5M until Tuesday 2PM GMT? 
Best, Emilie

Thanks Sir. I appreciate it. A lot. Please convey my thanks to your boss. Respectfully, Emilie.

Good morning, Sir. I see. Thanks for sharing. I'll revert soon. Emilie

I know Sir. I can't ask for more time. There is no decision yet, on 
behalf of the board and the trustees. The situation has turned to be too
 complex, and I hope that a positive decision will be taken in the next 
couple of hours. I predicted that, and this is the reason for asking for
 the Wednesday deadline, however I fully understand your view point. 
I'll come back once I have news. Respectfully, [redacted].

Sir, I have no news. I wish I could solve this matter. I wish. I 
predicted the dynamics in the charity, this is why I asked for 
Wednesday, and 1M. There is nothing I can do now, apart from praying 
that your boss will give me more time. But if it puts you, personally, 
at risk, please don't ask. Yours, [redacted].

Sir, I want to be honest. I don't know now. I just don't know what the 
decision will be. They are discussing, elaborating, trying to find 
understanding and sources of fund to pay. It is completely your decision
 Sir. I can't ask for more. You were very generous, and I hope one day 
will come I could reciprocate. [redacted].

As said, it's your call. You are more experienced than me in this 
business, and I'm familiar with the decision making process here. 
Publication will most likely discourage charity's leadership to pay 
anything. But again, you have the finger on the control button. Hope 
you'll take the right one. [redacted].

Starts at 14:00 London time. Sir.

Hope to have an answer by 17:00 GMT. If not a definitive answer, at least a positive indication, Sir.

I guess the latter Sir. This will not be dragged by Thursday, I believe.

Im here Sir. Waiting for you.

I'll check your decision in couple of hours Sir. I must leave this computer and go home to my family. Respectfully, [redacted].

Sir, I thank you and your boss, however I'm a bit confused by your 
message. First, my colleagues are informed on all our communication. I 
understand about the publication, and the sample publication you sent me
 earlier is what stirred the debate among the trustees, as I predicted. 
Second, what do you mean the attack will continue? Is this kind of a 
terminology you use to persuade people? Thanks for understanding, [redacted].

So, am I right to understand that you still have assets and access to 
the network? If yes, I need to inform the leadership as this change 
their discussions tomorrow. What type of access you have? Thanks, 
[redacted].

Yes. I thought that this will be your answer. I'm too exhausted to comment. Thanks and have a good night. [redacted].

Sir, good evening. No news. Significant and powerful external forces 
are involved at the moment. No decision has been made. I don't know to 
say when. I'm asking for nothing. Just humbly informing you of the 
current state of affairs. Sorry for that. [redacted].

Not mine, Sir. I'm doing my best. [redacted].

I will pass this message Sir.

Good morning Sir. I understand very well what is happening. And I 
probably failed to explain what was going on at the board meetings. 
[redacted] charity is not a private company, many stakeholders 
involved. Unfortunately. [redacted].
