Unrelated to this phishing e-mail — we're still receiving e-mails from compromised government e-mails saying things like "smelly is stinky". It's been months since we publicly meme'd about that and it's still going on 😭

$2,266 for the official vx-underground channel?
You might as well spit in our face and shit in our shoes. We've worked tirelessly for 5 years and you think we'd sell our souls for $2,266?
The disrespect is crazy 😭😭😭
In August we ingested over 1,000,000 malware samples. September our estimated malware ingestion figures will be closer to 18,000,000 samples.
By December we will likely pass 100,000,000 malware samples — making us the largest free public malware repo by a significant margin
To continue using our e-mail we need to kindly send our password to our ... web administrator.
Kindly
Shoutout to all the friends and colleagues in Brazil. It sucks Twitter is blocking Brazil. We love you all and welcome you to our Telegram area. Telegram is cool and badass.
Ignore the advertisements from Threat Actors on the channel (they advertise here a lot)
To appease our tech-adjacent audience that seems to enjoy our borderline neurotic computer posts: here is a photo of us removing some RAM sticks (we couldn't get them back in the computer)

Starting September vx-underground will charge $100 for every 100 Yottabytes of data used on the website.
We apologize for the inconvenience

Daniel Rhyne was employed as a core infrastructure engineer for an unnamed company. He intentionally changed domain controller credentials in an attempt to extort his employer out of $750,000.
He's now facing 30 years in prison.

This actually isn't the first time this has happened from Facebook. Last time this happened it was users commenting on celebrity profiles.
The issue was resolved within a few hours.
Anyway, Happy Birthday!
"Kros", Jim, and Ron,
Thank you for covering our asses. Please DM us. You all slightly gave us more than the lost $500 so we'll give you free swag, or something, whatever is clever.
Thanks,
P.S. Jim the homie, he doesn't even know what we do and he gave us money 😭😭😭
We cookin' now 🙏
