He explicitly stated that if I do not pay him, he will leak my server files to the public.</p></li></ol><h3></h3><p><span style="font-family: inherit">For those who know how RSPS architecture works, his story makes no sense. He tried to use technical confusion to make me think I was safe so I would let my guard down, while simultaneously using the stolen files as leverage for blackmail. You cannot threaten to leak a project while claiming your copies are 0-byte corrupt files.</span><br><br></p><h3></h3><p><span style="font-family: inherit">If</span><strong>Velion / guesswho_96</strong><span style="font-family: inherit">approaches you offering services, asking to look at your code, or wanting to partner on a project,</span><strong>block him immediately.</strong><span style="font-family: inherit">He is untrustworthy, incompetent at hiding his intentions, and will attempt to hold your hard work hostage the moment he gets access to your files.</span><br><br><strong>To the community:</strong><span style="font-family: inherit">Keep your repositories private, never trust this individual with your file access, and frequently update your VPS and database credentials. Don't let people like this ruin your project.</span></p>]]></description><language>en</language></channel></rss>
