* In this interview this person will be identified as LB0 (Lockbit administrator, founding member) * vx-underground conducted this interview over TOX - Text and grammar has been modified to improve legibility смелли: When did you start Lockbit and why? LB0: Lockbit was founded September 3rd, 2019. Other groups were autistic or drug addicts. смелли: Hahahaha. So, was this your first ransomware group? Or were you a veteran of the ransomware scene? LB0: I am a veteran. смелли: How'd you come up with the name Lockbit? It's a cool name LB0: Normal logic, lock and byte, lock byte [sic] смелли: Did you start Lockbit by yourself? Or did you have a team? LB0: I had a team. I'm the boss. Lockbit 1.0 was not created alone. Currently our team has over 10 members which includes pentesters, developers, money launderers, testers, and negotiators. смелли: You mentioned other competitors were drug addicts. Is substance abuse an issue in ransomware groups? LB0: Yes, cocaine or marijuana. I use drugs, but in very reasonable quantities and in rare occasion смелли: Understood. Well, is the current Lockbit team still present in Lockbit 3.0? LB0: Yes, people very rarely leave. If they do leave, I find and recruit. смелли: Do you ever see internal conflicts in the group? How do you manage that? LB0: If I see that the person behaves inadequately and does not correct himself, then I fire such a person or create conditions under which he leaves on his own. смелли: Do you ever hire outside of your team? Like contractors? LB0: Naturally, I hire different specialists for any work. I can't do everything with my own hands. In fact, I am a manager. смелли: This is a lot of work. Are you stressed from running the largest cyber cartel in history? LB0: I don't have any stress, I love my job, it's a lot of fun. I love when when I have 5 stars and helicopters like in GTA, I have fun. смелли: Your group is extremely active, how many affiliates do you have? LB0: No more than 100 people at the moment. My dream is 300 partners like 300 Spartans. In my blog there is a detailed description of how to become a partner, it can become any person from the planet earth and even aliens. http://lockbitapt2d73krlbewgv27tquljgxr33xbwwsp6rkyieto7u4ncead.onion/rules смелли: Regarding affiliates, you mentioned you have over 100... do you have ban affiliates? Do affiliates know each other? Do you have a chatroom? LB0: No, we don't have a chatroom. If someone wants to share they're a partner, they can do so. As far as banning affiliates - I do regular purges and block those who are not active. смелли: Do you ever reward affiliates for being active or doing big ransoms? LB0: The best reward for my partners is a stable platform to work with an impeccable reputation, the fourth year of stability what could be better? смелли: Do you negotiate for affiliates? Or do they do it themselves? LB0: I negotiate personally, for an increased percentage, the usual percentage is 20%, but if the negotiations are conducted by me personally, the percentage ranges from 30 to 50% depending on the complexity and effectiveness of the negotiations. смелли: Have you seen a decrease of affiliates since the beginning of the Russian / Ukrainian conflict? LB0: Yes I observe, 1-20% of the partners have gone to other countries to avoid being mobilized, the FBI has a great opportunity to catch someone who is not watching their anonymity and not quality laundering of money obtained by criminal means. смелли: Do you ever casually talk with affiliates or consider them your friends? LB0: Every partner is my friend) смелли: Regarding affiliates, people have discussed the difficulty of cashing out ransoms. Is it hard? LB0: I don't believe it, it's very simple. смелли: What really? Its easy to cash out? LB0: There's nothing easier than cashing out, it's the easiest thing in my job. Just transfer the money to Chinese exchangers, from there to another exchange, then to drop *** cards. You send the *** to the ATM and they bring you the cash. смелли: How do *** get the crypto on a card? LB0: There are a lot of online services, from cryptocurrency exchanges to exchangers and localbitcoins. I always use different ways to blend in with the crowd. смелли: You trust ***? LB0: I don't trust ***, but if you cash out long over several years and in small installments there is no problem. смелли: Where do you find ***? Forums? LB0: Yes смелли: ... Do you meet them in person? LB0: Yes смелли: Do these money mules know you're the leader of Lockbit? LB0: No lol they think I'm just some random hacker смелли: Wow. How much cash do you have these mules move? LB0: 1000-7000$ смелли: Do the mules go to the same ATM? Or multiple? LB0: lol? Of course not, they go to different ATMs, I trust *** no more than $7,000 смелли: Do you give these mules a percentage of the money they cashed out? LB0: Yes, 5% смелли: In a video that was released, some cl0p ransomware affiliates stored their money under a mattress. Is that where you keep your money too? LB0: I don't have money under my mattress, everything I cash out I immediately invest in the business and mix it with legal money, this way I inflate my business profits and launder money. And I spend only the money that is obtained in an honest way from the profits of my business and pay with my card))) смелли: Hahahaha. Yes, its been rumored you own a restaurant. Is this true? LB0: It's true, now I have 3 restaurants in China, and 2 restaurants in New York смелли: Random question: If you had the chance to tell threat intelligence something, what would you say? LB0: Work better bums, you have to find all my competitors, but you can never find me. смелли: Random question: If you had the chance to talk to the FBI, what would you say? LB0: Free Assange. смелли: Random question: If you had a chance to tell an anti virus company something. What would you say? LB0: Don't watch your users please
