Hello guys, I am in a serious dilemma. booting my system for the first time this morning, I was greeted with a message which read thus

" All your important files were encrypted on this computer.
You can verify this by click on see files an try open them.
Encryption was produced using unique public key RSA-1024 generated for this computer.
To decrypted files, you need to obtain private key.
The single copy of the private key, with will allow you to decrypt the files, is locate on a secret server on the internet.
The server will destroy the key within 78 hours after encryption completed.
To retrieve the private key, you need to Contact us by email , send us an email your DECRYPT-ID-29b5a3d0-c66f-4724-b5d1-322f92867f0e number
and wait for further instructions.
For you to be sure, that we can decrypt your files - you can send us a single encrypted file and we will send you back it in a decrypted form.
Please do not waste your time! You have 72 hours only! After that The Main Server will double your price!

also, all my files (music, videos, document, pictures, name it) have been encrypted to an extension of ".MOLE" and non seems to be opening no matter how much I tried opening it with the exception of already installed programs.

any help to unlock my files would be highly welcome.

Lol. The question we should first ask you is where did you go with your computer over the internet? I used to think these things were fake. It happened to me from my browser but somehow i managed to close the task on task manager. I would advise you never to pay any money to anybody as you would lose double... restart your system in safe mode and see if there is anytbing you can collect from the system thats inportant then format...your best option.

I used to think it's fake too, but loo and behold it's real. Just try accessing thru that safe mode or better still wipe the F out of the computer and start a fresh. Good luck

Nothing you can do.... If it is really encrypted. Pay the hacker to give you the keys... Or lose your data.

Next time, don't open PDF file from a source you don't trust. It's so easy to spread ransomware these days.

Go to darknet sites like alphabay you will know these stuffs are real.
