It started like any ordinary Monday morning.
Emails were being checked, the coffee machine was busy, and the sales team at a mid-sized marketing agency was getting ready for a big client presentation.
At 9:42 AM, everything changed.
The agency’s shared files suddenly became unreadable. Every document, video, and campaign asset was replaced with one chilling message:
“Your files have been encrypted. Pay 3 Bitcoins to get them back.”
Panic spread faster than the ransomware itself.
The Attack: How It Happened
All it took was one email.
A single, innocent-looking message from what appeared to be the company’s accounting software asking an employee to “verify a payment invoice.”
The employee clicked.
Within seconds, malware silently spread through the company’s network, encrypting years of work and client data.
The hackers didn’t break in — they were invited in.

The Aftermath
-
The company lost two weeks of productivity.
-
Client projects worth $80,000 were delayed.
-
Their reputation took a hit when partners heard they’d been compromised.
-
And yes — even after paying the ransom, half the files were never recovered.
That small moment of trust – one click – cost them more than any hacker could have imagined.
