This, after Sony has spent all week shifting email to new servers, instructing staffers to change passwords, and turning back the clock to old-school time-punch cards in order to process employees' payment. All of these efforts were made by Sony to thwart another attack by the GOP (easily confused with the political party). But an email that landed in many inboxes proved Sony's scramble is so far insufficient. The email included a warning to all who did not assist the GOP that their families could land in harm's way. Sony has had computer security teams working round the clock to rescue what they can from the company's crippled servers since the initial attack was discovered on Nov. 24. At the time, company officials had all staffers stay off of email and avoid the company's internal WiFi network, to maintain security while they tried to rebuilt. A new round of emails threatening staff could signal that the attackers didn't simply commit one of the largest hit-and-run cyber attacks on a U.S. company, but intend to continue toying with the firm as it struggles to get back on its feet. Read the email in full, per *Variety <http://variety.com/2014/film/news/hackers-threaten-sony-employees-in-new-email-your-family-will-be-in-danger-1201372230/>*(emphasis added). I am the head of GOP who made you worry. Removing Sony Pictures on earth is a very tiny work for our group which is a worldwide organization. And what we have done so far is only a small part of our further plan.It's your false if you if you think this crisis will be over after some time. All hope will leave you and Sony Pictures will collapse. This situation is only due to Sony Pictures. Sony Pictures is responsible for whatever the result is. Sony Pictues clings to what is good to nobody from the beginning. It's silly to expect in Sony Pictures to take off us. Sony Pictures makes only useless efforts. One beside you can be our member. Many things beyond imagination will happen at many places of the world. Our agents find themselves act in necessary places. *Please sign your name to object the false of the company at the email address below if you don't want to suffer damage.
