Telegram is cool and badass

It's recursive (Telegram is cool and badass)

Thank you to our friend ddd1ms for the NAS hardware donation.

We are no longer storing the vx-underground archives on an old creeky external harddrive.

We now have 48TB of RAID storage, or something, something fancy. It's really cool. Thank you so much.

The potatoes are there because the NAS heats them up, then the mini-fan on the floor distributes a nice potato smell throughout the office.

Hello,

Please do not lie on your resume and claim to be 'employed' at vx-underground. It is very awkward when we have to inform your potential employer that you're lying.

Also, it's weird, don't be a booger.

Thanks,

Dear large enterprise companies using our website,

Contact your boss, or your bosses boss, and tell them to give us some of their large enterprise company money. We offer everything for free, if you're going to profit off our work, at least throw us a few bucks

Thanks,

inb4 gives us $50 and a free t-shirt when they've prolly made $20,000,000 from our malware samples

$2,266 for the official vx-underground channel?

You might as well spit in our face and shit in our shoes. We've worked tirelessly for 5 years and you think we'd sell our souls for $2,266?

The disrespect is crazy 😭😭😭

Damn, Telegram cut us off. :(

39% of our web visitors are using Tor.

We cookin' now 🙏

(our virus database now implements basic YARA rules and tagging)

(we're bringing in roughly 2 malware samples a second)

(lord help our server bills)

TorGuard VPN is running a 60% off deal with promo code VXDADDY.

No, this isn't a joke. This all happened on a whim from a meme.

"Kros", Jim, and Ron,

Thank you for covering our asses. Please DM us. You all slightly gave us more than the lost $500 so we'll give you free swag, or something, whatever is clever.

Thanks,

P.S. Jim the homie, he doesn't even know what we do and he gave us money 😭😭😭
