The REvil ransomware group which is also known as Sodinokibi claims to have access to data that would damage Trump’s presidential campaign.
Last week it was reported that hackers from the REvil ransomware group stole a trove of top celebrity data from a New York City law firm named Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks. The hackers also threatened to leak personal data on celebrities like Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, and Madonna, etc. if their demands are not met which includes ransom of $21 million.
Now, the same hackers are claiming to have access to “dirty laundry” (referring to sensitive and potentially damaging data) on President Donald Trump. But this time, the REvil ransomware group is demanding a ransom of whopping $42 million, Hackread.com has learned.

Apparently, the demands from hackers came after the law firm refrained from paying $21 million ransom and rubbished the group’s claim of having access to its top-notch celebrity clients. It is worth noting that the REvil ransomware group initially claimed to steal 756GB of data from the law firm’s servers. At that time, the REvil ransomware operators claimed to have access following data on celebrities:
Contracts
Telephone numbers
Email addresses
Personal correspondence
Non-disclosure agreements
