Miserable bastards behind this sort of thing should be strung up.
It is much more common than you may think, companies often pay up to avoid the spotlight and to not tell the police they were the victim of a security hack.  If they do, customers will seek out other 'safer' companies to handle their business when in reality the 'safer' companies have a stricter internal privacy policy against reporting they were victims of ransom ware / hacks

They say they're getting DoS attacks and a ransom has been demanded (!), and service may be interrupted due to continued attacks. They're posting status on their home page.
