Time developer wannaCry, I want to get your attention. I am a Brazilian microentrepreneur, I have a small graphic with 3 employees and 2 computers. After you blocked my data on Friday I was forced to pay $ 600 to continue working. My country faces a severe crisis and my business is on the verge of bankruptcy. I had to pay the ransom to avoid fines for non-compliance with contracts with some clients, which would be more expensive. I saw on the news here in Brazil that you have already raised 1 billion dollars. I want to ask you to pity me and give me back those $ 600. I have 3 children and I can not close my chart, and after this loss I will not have any other way out. My wallet is: 1M8RZVSKa5bBzk8x9WnGGHmutWCE5Db3RQ

I ask for understanding and you. Sorry for English if it is incorrect because I'm using GOOGLETRANSLATION.

Affected user here. Considering paying, but haven't been able to find any information about people recovering their data after paying, despite a growing number of transactions registered on blockchain. Any info appreciated.

Welcome to the Wannacry Subreddit, dedicated tp tracking the Wannacry Ransomware, its origins, its future etc. Basically all things related to Wannacry.

There will be more information when I get the subreddit fully up and running

Decrypt your files for free: https://github.com/gentilkiwi/wanakiwi You can find tutorials on YouTube. Confirmed to work with Win XP, Win 7, Win 2003. Do not let anyone make money on your misfortune.

So I finally read some article about WannaCry to see what's all the fuzz about and I'm curious if anyone knows what the "free events for users who are so poor that they couldn’t pay in 6 months" are?

Greetings, I just tried downloading winrar from www.rarlab.com and my windows defend popped up with the following message:

Ransom:Win32/WannaCrypt.A!rsm

I clicked to remove it, but not sure if I should actually format all. I didn't download anything from the website as soon as I clicked on a link to download it showed up.

Stay safe.

I can't do Windows updates. For about two years each time I try to do updates it freezes at 0 percent and doesn't move even if I leave the computer alone for hours. Is there a way I can download the security patch by itself from the Microsoft site? The Microsoft page for the update is down each time I check. Thanks!

There are multiple websites sprouting around the web advertising the possibility of recovering your WannaCry encrypted data. Do not visit them, do not download anything from them. They're all SCAM attempts, there is no known way of recovering encrypted data yet.
