If you sent KXRM (Colorado Springs) and email, you might not hear back from them for awhile. ​

The station's email has been hacked and is being held for ransom. ​

The station writes on their website "​Sometime overnight Sunday the server that stores our emails was hacked, and the person(s) responsible is literally holding our information for ransom, asking for $5,000 to unlock the data he scrambled."

The station said their engineers and the FBI is on the case, but neither have been able to restore the station's email as of yet.

Also, it doesn't look like the station is going to fork over the 5 G's.​

They might just want to try signing up for a free Gmail account.​

Works for us. ​
