Oh no not at all. The scammers tried to extort him for more money, and meanwhile I was told to engage this guy on Telegram to get more information on how to reproduce the error. He tried to get me to buy his “vulnerability detection kit” or whatever, which I’m sure was a virus of some kind.
I forgot to mention that the entire company, including the customer’s non technical CFO, tried to convince him not to post the ransom in the first place.
