Hello,
SCRYPTmail is receiving reports that a new virus, that appears to be ransomware detected as virus-encode, is asking people to contact an email address hosted by the encrypted email service SCRYPTmail.com.
There are a few points to make clear:
If subpoenaed by an authority with jurisdiction in the United States, SCRYPTmail will release the ENCRYPTED version of the mailbox to those authorities.
We understand why an encrypted email service such as SCRYPTmail may have been chosen as the email service provider by the creator of the virus because they will benefit from the increased privacy compared to an unencrypted free email service such as Gmail or Yahoo.
Please feel free to reply your questions and comments here.
Thank you.
