    After payment, we will provide you with a decryptor for the entire network, identify vulnerabilities and delete your data

  34. Message 034 From Victim Victim Date

    How do we make test decryptions?

  35. Message 035 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    There is a mention on your page, upload a small encrypted file

  36. Message 036 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    Please perform the actions faster.Otherwise, we will change the negotiator, and make mentions of your company on the blog.

  37. Message 037 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    I know that your goal is to drag out negotiations as long as possible so that we get nervous and agree to a smaller amount. by asking dumb questions you are playing against yourself and risk getting blogged. the test decryptor window is to the left of the chat.

  38. Message 038 From Victim Victim Date

    We are not trying to drag anything out. We have never dealt with anything like this before and I wanted to be sure. I will get my leadership team to give me some files.

  39. Message 039 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    you can say what you want, but we have a lot of experience and we understand everything. each machine has its own ID. for a successful transcription you need to take the file from your PC, with the ID you are logged into the chat! or go to the chat with the ID of the PC from which you take the file for test decryption

  40. Message 040 From Victim Victim Date

    The decrypted file that you sent us looks corrupt. Can we send you another one.

  41. Message 041 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    You can follow the link to the chat from any PC, take the file from this PC and use the test decryption

  42. Message 042 From Victim Victim Date

    We tried to do it on another PC. Your decrypt tester is not letting us upload any more files.

  43. Message 043 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    send the file, we will decrypt it for you. it should not be an important file, a picture or pdf

  45. Message 045 From Victim Victim Date

    We've tried to attach more files in the chat but it wont work. Does this work for you?

  46. Message 046 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    ok, wait

  48. Message 048 From Victim Victim Date

    Thank you for the file. I gave it to my leadership to review.

  49. Message 049 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    hurry up! very slow

  50. Message 050 From Victim Victim Date

    My leadership said that they don't know what that file was that you sent and they wanted to send another one.

  51. Message 051 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    You sent us the file yourself. Okay. Send us another file

  52. Message 052 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    You will do the test yourself faster if you perform the action correctly.Your visiting this chat room once a day does not contribute to the solution.

  53. Message 053 From Victim Victim Date

    Ok. We will find one and get back to you ASAP.

  54. Message 054 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    hurry up

  55. Message 055 From Victim Victim Date

    Since all the names were changed on our files it is taking a long time making the appropriate selection.

  56. Message 056 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    It takes a maximum of 1 hour.We are well aware that you are a representative of the recovery company and want to earn yourself.But in fact you are damaging your clients and yourself as a negotiator

  58. Message 058 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    You have time to think about whether to drag out the negotiations further, or pay up and close the matter quietly.

  59. Message 059 From Victim Victim Date

    I'm not part of a recovery company. We are trying to work with you. Once you publish our data there will be no point in talking with you. I will check with my team on the status of getting more sample files.

  60. Message 060 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    don't care! you won't scare us with this. you've been taking too long, whoever you are. your name will be published first, and then only your details. if you don't pay, others will pay. our patience is over

  65. Message 065 From Victim Victim Date

    My leadership is going to meet to discuss this.

  66. Message 066 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    Hurry up

  67. Message 067 From Victim Victim Date

    The leadership meeting has been delayed due to something beyond our control. Thank you for your continued patience with us.

  68. Message 068 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    If you hope that by delaying negotiations you will lower the price, you are mistaken

  69. Message 069 From Victim Victim Date

    I am not trying to delay negotiations. I have not heard back from the board yet.

  70. Message 070 From LockBit 3.0 Actor / other Date

    it's time to pay
