Is there any record of the ransom virus on a Linux system?

I've only heard success stories (if you can even call it that). The
code can't be cryptographically cracked and it's been difficult to
track the authors. There were some leads for one group a week ago or
so, but I haven't followed it. It's a pretty lousy situation.

I've heard from a friend that talked to someone that paid the
ransom and they couldn't decrypt the files and he lost the files
and lost the money. Is anyone working on trying to either catch
these crooks or trying to crack their code?

You have to pay or restore from a backup. You can't beat the
encryption.

Just recently a friend of mine opened an outlook message that
asked her to download a program that turned out to be a
ransom virus and has encrypted all of her Microsoft office
files and are wanting her to pay a ransom of $500 to get her
files back.
Has anyone had any success in retrieving these ransom files
from an infected machine? If so please contact me if you
have any ideas how to retrieve these files.
Thank you,
