I am writing to you with utter desperation. We are in an impossible situation and cannot afford your ransom demand.

We live in Iran, where hyperinflation and exchange rates have crippled us.

1 [Your Currency, e.g., BTC/XMR/USD] = ~1,000,000,000,000 IRR (a month’s wages for many here).

Your ransom is equivalent to years of our income—we are not a corporation or wealthy individuals.

These files hold our entire lives: family photos, medical records, university work, and irreplaceable memories.



Desperately,
