My files are encrypted?

February 14th, 2016, 8:25

Hello everyone

I'm from Athens Greece.

I have a problem with my files. The data on my drive has been encrypted I think. They have an extension changed to .vvv like this:
C:\Users\Dimitris\Desktop\Pictures\Work2015\DSC1011.jpg.vvv
C:\Users\Dimitris\Desktop\Pictures\Work2015\workflow.pdf.vvv
C:\Users\Dimitris\Desktop\Pictures\Work2015\woven.doc.vvv
C:\Users\Dimitris\Desktop\Pictures\Work2015\wrongfile.pdf.vvv

etc

I made a search on Google about it and I read there is no hope and you must pay ransom to get your data back.

I ask here because I see that there are many people with a lot of knowledge.

Thank you.

Hi Dimitris, Dimitris here :P

What you read is wrong. We can recover your data.

You can bring your drive to our offices in Athens and we will be happy to take a look.

It looks like Tesla.

I just got a phone call that my data are on de-cryption process and they will be ready for me to deliver tomorrow!!!
That was very fast!
I am very happy!

Teslacrypt 2.0 (.ccc, .vvv, .xyz, .abc, .aaa, .zzz, .ecc, .ezz, and .ecx.), Can be decrypted.

Teslacrypt 3.0 (.micro, .xxx, .ttt), can not be decrypt (to my knowledge).
