A staff member shared with KCRG screenshots from district computers showing a warning message stating, “All your files have been encrypted by Vice Society.” The warning goes on to threaten to upload those files to the dark web unless the user contacts them to purchase a key within seven days. The notice does not give the cost of that key.
