Hello! My name is Max Sokolov if you see this message it means that my little virus running on your computer. I started to create this virus since 2010, at the moment the code is so refined that no one in the world can not stop it. All your personal files (photo, documents, databases) have been encrypted by a very strong cipher. You can check this by yourself – just look for files in all folders;) Virus encrypt your file using Advanced Encryption Standard and 256 symbols randomly generated password and delete source files using DOD 5220.22-M. (DOD 5220.22-M is the Department of Defense clearing and sanitizing standard – You can’t recover your files – Never). Virus sent this randomly generated password to our secure server and delete this password from your computer. (You can’t get this password – NEVER) This password is unique for each computer and stored on our secure server (and then erasing from this server and sending to us) and in each encrypted file. If you think that you or some specialist get this password from encrypted file – this is unreal even for government services, because here using 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard. To brute-force an AES-256-ECB encryption key in a known-plain text attack, using all possible combinations, on a CrayXE6 with one million Opteron 6282 SE cores, it would take up to ~ 78,344,731,523,332,652,678,509,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years to complete the known-plain text attack. You want to ask, what do i need? I’m the only one who can save your PC;) Your will be able to resume your normal day to day operations without any interruption. I ask to transfer a small amount (min $50 or $60) with payment systems Moneypak, Vanilla Reload Network or Reloadit. To remove lock and decrypt your files you need to do next step: 1.Buy Moneypak, Vanillareload or Reloadit card. 2.Send me email with your ID number and card code (you can use mobile internet from your cell phone or another PC to send email) 3.Wait 1-5 hours while i will send you reply email password to unlock and decrypt your files.
