Tesla finds itself in the crosshairs of a sophisticated, now partially disjointed Russian hacking organization known as "the group." A group that uses techniques and procedures typical of the field of espionage and that tried to recruit an employee of the company of the automobile company in exchange for a million dollars. However, he ended up reporting them to the FBI's counterintelligence department. There are times when it is difficult to distinguish organized crime from the actions of intelligence services. The line is sometimes fuzzy and its methods are common. This is one of these cases. It is the story of a conspiracy that straddles the field of international espionage and illicit profit motives. Its protagonists are two Russian citizens: a mysterious man who flies from Moscow to the United States under a declared identity (about which there is no trace before these events) and a compatriot who emigrated to America to make his fortune as a Tesla employee. Tesla's stock market value has soared 500% so far this year. The company is going through the sweetest moment in its history: it has recently become the largest manufacturer in the world by market capitalization. A success that has not gone unnoticed by the world of crime, which has set its eyes on Elon Musk's successful company looking to make its own August. The objective? Apparently, take control of the computer networks of the automobile company (accounting, customers, R&D, etc.) with the aim of hijacking them and then demanding a ransom. However, the Russian criminal group's plan was truncated when the Tesla employee, who had been offered a million dollars, decided to report to the FBI. The case, which has followed the channels of an incident of a criminal nature, is full of unknowns, doubts and chiaroscuro. Despite having received the treatment of a common crime, the agent in charge of the investigation (assigned to contain intelligence tasks in North American territory) states in his report that the alleged offender uses methods and techniques typical of a field agent during operation. Intelligence. In his report, the federal agent makes several notes in this regard. In addition, it deliberately omits sensitive information, about other large companies that allegedly would have been victims of the Russian organization before Tesla. According to the FBI report, it is an operation planned from Russia that was intended to be carried out on North American territory. The first contact relevant to the case between the Tesla employee (about whom not much information about his identity is provided and who has the status of "confidential source") and the member of the Russian organization (identified as Kryuchkov in the affidavit of the FBI) was made through WhatsApp. However, both were old acquaintances since 2016 and had resumed communication through a third person (unidentified) at the end of July this year. TWO OLD KNOWN When both protagonists returned to contact by WhatsApp, Kriuchkov told the Tesla employee his intention to visit him during a trip to the United States that he had planned. Days later, Kryuchkov flew from Moscow to New York and entered the country legally on a tourist visa. In addition, he took advantage of his stop in the Big Apple to get several "clean" phone cards and paid for in cash. Afterward, Kryuchkov flew from New York to San Francisco. From there, he traveled in a rented car to Nevada, where his compatriot who worked at Tesla resided. The first meeting between the two took place on August 1. During the next three days, Kricuhkov stayed at the employee's home up to 5 times. During this time, both (in the company of several acquaintances of the worker) took the opportunity to make excursions to nearby natural places. It was precisely in these escapades that Kryuchkov began to have suspicious behavior, as revealed in the FBI document. "During the excursions, Kryuchkov expressly showed his desire not to appear in any photos, arguing that he did not need them to remember the beauty of the place. However, at the insistence of the rest of his fellow travelers, he ended up posing for a group picture. In addition He also did not use his mobile phone during this time, "the report states. According to the agent in charge of the case, assigned to counterintelligence tasks and with 15 years of experience in the force, "individuals involved in criminal activities often make an effort not to leave evidence about their locations, avoid surveillance systems and do not take Photos". During the trip, the assistants noticed that Kryuchkov insisted on paying all the expenses related to the escape. This young 27-year-old Russian justified his expense by claiming that he had won good money gambling at the casino. "I know, thanks to my training and experience, that people involved in intelligence operations and criminal activities often spend money extravagantly in front of people who try to recruit or incorporate into their criminal activities," says the federal agent. At the end of this trip, Kryuchkov told the Tesla employee that he would like to "talk business" the next day. "SPECIAL PROJECTS" In this new face-to-face encounter they drank and got drunk in a restaurant. When they were both drunk enough, Kryuchkov piled up the cell phones, pushed them away, and jumped into the pool to try and recruit his compatriot. Kryuchkov told him that he worked for a "group" that paid employees of large companies large sums of money. In return, they had to introduce malicious programs into their employer's computer systems. The young Russian boasted that "the group" had carried out these "special projects" successfully on various occasions against other relevant companies. However, the names of the companies have been hidden from the FBI report submitted to the judge. Kryuchkov also explained that the modus operandi of these "special projects" consisted of carrying out two simultaneous actions. One of them was carried out remotely over the internet in the form of a denial of services attack against a company. An attack that the "group" knew had no real chance of success but was intended to serve as a distraction. Meanwhile, the actual attack took place from within the company premises with a recruited employee who was in charge of infecting the company's networks with a malicious program, stored on a USB stick. The aim of the action was that the professionals in charge of computer security were focused on repelling the external attack while the internal attack was completed successfully. Once the trick was successfully executed, it was only necessary for "the group" to contact the company to ask for money for a ransom. Something that they had already achieved with success in previous operations, as Kryuchkov himself confessed to his compatriot on different occasions, even mentioning names of large companies affected by this technique. However, the names of these companies were omitted from the report that the FBI sent to the judge. For the operation against Tesla, the job of the Tesla employee would consist of carrying out the attack from within and his task was very simple: insert a USB with malicious code into a computer connected to the company's network. In return, they offered him half a million dollars. FROM COMPINCH TO INFORMANT Days later, on August 7, Kryuchkov and his compatriot who works for the electric car company met again. This time, the meeting took place inside a car. However, they were not alone. The FBI was watching them. Sometime between August 3-7, the Tesla worker betrayed his compatriot and contacted his company's security department. He alerted them to his plans and they, in turn, alerted the FBI. The worker had gone from being a possible accomplice to becoming an FBI informant. During the meeting in the car, Kryuchkov tried to offer "guarantees" to his compatriot, who pretended to continue cooperating with the gang. They even hagged the reward, which amounted to $ 1 million. Kryuchkov also offered the informant the possibility of planting false evidence so that the traces of the crime would lead to a person of his choice. "EL PACHÁ" AND "KITTY" Over the next several weeks, both individuals continued to negotiate under the watchful eye of the FBI. During this time they agreed that the worker would receive advance payment as a token of good faith. To do this, they collaborated and planned a way to open a safe and "clean" wallet so that the advance was paid in Bitcoin. However, the FBI had already managed to tap into the virtual wallet as another way to collect information about the case. During their frequent encounters, the informant spoke with other members of the gang (always hands-free through Kriuchov's cell phones). The FBI document acknowledges that the Tesla employee spoke with a guy who used the alias "Pasha," which the feds refer to with that nickname in official documents. Pasha was the person responsible for approving the payments that the worker would receive for his collaboration with "the group." Although it is not mentioned in the FBI report, "Pasha" is the Latin transcription of a Russian word of Turkish origin, which was used to designate a high leader of the Ottoman Empire, usually in the military sphere, so it is very likely this man was responsible for the group. The Spanish translation of "Pasha" is Pachá. Another member of the band is only identified as "Kisa". A Russian diminutive whose translation is "kitten". Kisa's task would be to "notify" (by means of a smiley face emoticon via WhatsApp) the Tesla employee of the

The revelation that the first lady broke security regulations, which require communications between senior officials to be through official and protected systems, echoes the scandal that cost Hillary Clinton her candidacy for president Melania Trump used emails and private text messages as first lady, thus breaking the basic security regulations of the United States Administration, which require that communications between high officials be made through official and protected systems. That is the accusation made by the former adviser - and former personal friend - of Donald Trump's wife, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, in an interview with the Washington Post. "Melania and I never used emails from the White House," says Wolkoff, who just published the book 'Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady.' Among the systems used by Melania Trump, according to Wolkoff, are a private email from the Trump Organization - the society under which all the president's business activities are organized -, from the Internet domain MelaniaTrump.com, from the text messaging service of The iPhone, iMessage, and the Signal app. To support his accusations, Wolkoff, who was one of the coordinators of the parties for the transfer of powers from the presidency of Barack Obama to that of Donald Trump, has presented several online conversations with Melania Trump to the newspaper through private electronic messaging systems . The two broke their friendship as a result of investigations into possible misappropriation of funds in acts of transfer of powers from Obama to Trump. Wolkoff accuses Melania Trump of having tried to attribute the alleged irregularities to her company, WIS Media Partners, and of having eluded all responsibility. The revelation that Melania Trump used private email and text messages echoes the scandal that cost Hillary Clinton the 2016 presidential bid: her decision to use Google-owned Gmail email and a private server on her home in New York, during her tenure as Secretary of State from 2012 to 2016. Clinton did not report to the State Department, and when an investigation was conducted into the case, it was discovered that among the emails on the server were 22 with the rating 'Top Secret'. In addition, Clinton deleted 33,000 emails from her server so that they were not accessible to researchers. In August 2016, in the middle of the electoral campaign, Donald Trump launched his famous phrase in relation to emails when he said: "Russia, if you are listening, I hope you are able to find the 30,000 missing emails." The Clinton email scandal prompted prominent Republican figures, including Trump's former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, to sing chants saying "Lock her up!" Paradoxically, no one has taken similar action against other senior officials in the Trump administration - or that of George W. Bush - for using private emails. General Colin Powell, who was US Secretary of State during the invasion of Iraq, also used a private email. The same is true of Donald Trump's senior advisers, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, the president's daughter and son-in-law respectively.

The first model born 100% electric in the brand has an icon surname and an SUV body. It promises up to 600 kilometers between recharges. The Ford Mustang Mach-e, the first 100% electric model designed as such by the American company, already has prices for Spain. The car, a model with a noble surname and an SUV body, is offered in four versions, depending on whether it is rear or all-wheel drive (in this case it has two electric motors) and whether the variant with standard or extended autonomy is chosen. Deliveries will begin at the end of this year, with a basic version that starts at 48,473 euros without state aid. Taking full advantage of the Moves II, that is, giving a car of seven or more years in return, the figure will be reduced by 5,500 euros. Given its size (it measures 4.71 meters long) and that there are not many rivals yet, it is a very tight rate, quite a distance from other (premium) models such as the Jaguar i-Pace, the Mercedes-Benz EQC or the Tesla Model Y. The latter does not fall below 64,000 euros with a range of 505 kilometers. UP TO 600 RANGE WITH A CHARGE In the case of the Mustang Mach-e, for almost 16,000 euros we will get the rear-wheel drive (RWD) variant, with 258 hp of power and a 76 kW battery that in the homologation tests reached a range between recharges of 450 km. As a curiosity, Ford points out that the car, although it does not pollute when moved by electricity, does have estimated emissions from the generation of that electricity equivalent to about 21 grams of CO2 per km (or 1.6 liters of fuel each 100 km). Ford does not specify from which electricity production mix it obtains this data. If we want to go a little further, we can opt for the two-wheel-drive variant with extended autonomy up to 600 km. To do this, a higher capacity battery (99 kW) is mounted and we also scale the engine that delivers 285 HP, although this does not mean that performance such as acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h is improved: the two models invest the same time , 8 seconds, to complete the maneuver. VERY WELL EQUIPPED AND AFFORDABLE EXTRAS Although it will be necessary to pay a lot more, specifically 56,277 euros. They are justified by the greater power and autonomy, since the equipment is the same. Thus, all rear-wheel drive Mustang Mach-e come with leather upholstery (perforated or not), 18-inch alloy wheels, LED taillights, 10.2-inch digital dashboard and 15.5-inch touch screen , key function in the phone and adaptive cruise control with traffic assistant. Then, as extras, you can add different paintings (between 900 and 1,300 euros in cost) and the so-called Technology package that, for another 1,800 euros, incorporates a B&O audio system with 9 speakers, an electric hands-free gate, a pre-collision assistant with radar / camera, intelligent adaptive cruise control (IACC) with roadside assistance and driver monitoring system, full parking assist assist and 360 ° camera. THE TOTAL TRACTION REACHES 337 HORSES Until the details of the Mustang Mach-e GT are known, the flagship of the range is represented by the all-wheel drive, extended range version. It has two electric motors that add up to 337 hp and can travel 540 km until the battery is exhausted, which is the one with the highest capacity. If we opt for the 76 kW, then the maximum power is 258 hp and the range, 420 km. These versions, thanks to the greater thrust of the two propellants, reduce the time to do the 0 to 100 km / h by one second, and deliver a maximum torque of 565 Nm (415 for the two-wheel drive models). The price of the most performance model starts at 64,903 euros, which is reduced to 55,773 euros in the lower one. Its standard equipment adds, compared to the RWD versions, 19-inch alloy wheels, front seats with eight-position electric adjustment and memory or red brake calipers, among others. As an option, only the possibility of the panoramic roof is added.

The Latin American country faces "important needs" in the balance of payments due to the 44,000 million dollars it owes to the IMF The Government of Argentina has sent a letter to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) this Wednesday to formally request the opening of talks with a view to agreeing on a new credit program with the multilateral organization. The letter was sent by the Argentine Minister of Economy, Martín Guzmán, and the president of the Central Bank, Miguel Pesce, to the managing director of the IMF, Kristalina Georgieva, after she had an extensive conversation with the president this morning. from Argentina, Alberto Fernández. In the letter, the Argentine government states that the country faces "significant needs" in the balance of payments for the 2021-2024 period, mostly associated with the debt payments it must make to the IMF, for about 44,000 million dollars. Upon assuming the Presidency last December, Fernández suspended an agreement with the IMF, signed in 2018 for 57,000 million dollars, of which Argentina had received about 44,000 million dollars, and renounced the pending tranches of the agreement. Argentina "to a large extent, has already put the accounts in order with the creditors and will begin working today to do so with the international credit organizations, especially the IMF," added the president of the country of La Plata. Argentina is a few days away from closing a debt swap for some 66,000 million dollars issued in bonds under foreign legislation. The term to adhere to the swap ends next Friday and the results will be known the following week. The Argentine public debt amounts to a total of 324,000 million dollars, almost 90% of the Gross Domestic Product.

On average, gorillas eat 18 kilos of vegetation a day, although some males can even reach 30 kilograms. We offer you a handful of fun facts about these fascinating animals. Gorillas are primates from the forests of Africa. On the one hand is the eastern or mountain gorilla, which lives in the most mountainous areas of central Africa (Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo). And, on the other hand, there is the western or lowland gorilla that lives in the flat forests of central and western Africa (Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon and the Central African Republic among others). In addition, although both are very similar, they present some differences. Mountain gorillas have a long coat that insulates them from temperatures, while lowland gorillas have shorter and softer hair. They also differ in size. The lowland gorilla is approximately 1.7 meters tall when on two legs. The mountain gorilla has the same height but weighs between 130 and 220 kilos, making it somewhat larger. Gorillas are primarily herbivorous primates, feeding mostly on grasses, branches, fruits, tree bark, berries, and shoots. However, when they run out of food they can eat small insects such as ants, termites, snails or caterpillars. On average, gorillas eat 18 kilos of vegetation a day, although some males can even reach 30 kilograms. Another peculiarity about gorillas is that they almost never drink water directly, since they get most of the liquid from consuming plants. They are polygamous Gorillas are polygamous, as the dominant male usually has several females. Although they co[CENSORED]te frequently, their reproduction is complicated since the females are only fertile two days a month. They live in a group Groups of gorillas are called troops or bands. A gorilla gang can have up to 50 members, although sometimes a gang consists of as few as two members. Additionally, the troops are led by a dominant male, called a silverback, who can be identified by a strip of gray hair on the back. They can be aggressive If the dominant male is threatened by a younger one, he may hit his chest, break tree branches or show his teeth. Leader change When the dominant male dies, either from disease, hunting, or fighting, the group splits up to find another guide to replace him. They can't swim Gorillas are animals that cannot swim. This is the reason why both species have not gotten to mix with each other, since the Congo River constitutes a natural barrier. They are in danger of extinction According to WWF, the total po[CENSORED]tion of mountain gorillas exceeds 1,000, although they are threatened by poaching, destruction of forests, climate change, infrastructure development and the risk of contagious diseases. They consume more than 100 different fruits Gorillas consume up to 104 different types of plants and fruits. Gorilla's favorite fruits in the wild are from the genera Dialium, Tetrapleura, and Landolphia. Build nests Gorilla beds are called nests. Young gorillas usually make their nests in trees, while older gorillas make their nests on the ground. His arms are longer than his legs Gorillas' arms are longer than their legs. This allows them to walk on all four limbs while remaining somewhat upright. They are very smart These primates are very intelligent. They can use simple tools and even learn sign language.

The Swedish manufacturer offers for its supercar a carbon fiber finish for which you have to pay 372,000 euros. It is increasingly common to talk about supercars whose price exceeds one million euros. It could be considered that the Bugatti Veyron opened it, 15 years ago, with more than 1,000 horsepower and a starting price of 1.5 million. Since then, and showing that the crisis at the end of the last decade or the current one sometimes runs through parallel worlds that have nothing to do with it, the supply of cars of this type has not stopped growing. The Koenigsegg Jesko - a beast with up to 1,600 horsepower and speeds that could shake the Bugatti Chiron record (here's your proof) - is one of the last, with a rate that will scandalize more than one: 2.35 million euros ... without taxes. Although the thing can go still much further. Because now and thanks to Manny Khoshbin, the Iranian collector and super millionaire who has reserved a unit, it has been known that the excess also comes to the prices of the options of these very exclusive cars. And is that in the Jesko an exterior finish can cost the same ... as a Lamborghini Aventador. For example, one of the most important things when creating the car is choosing the color and exterior finish. Here, Koenigsegg offers, at no extra cost, five solid colors. But the bill begins to increase if you want a metallic finish (11,600 euros), pearl (20,800) ... And let's not say if for the 'skin' of the car we want the carbon fiber to be visible. Here the thing shoots up to stratospheric levels since to begin to speak they are 250,000 euros. Although the most expensive extra of the Jesko Absolut is the KNC finish (Koenigsegg Naked Carbon) that costs a whopping 372,000 euros (price of the American configurator that Khoshbin uses). You can make things even more complicated, for example, by putting a central strip in gold paint (another 36,700 euros) or mounting ultralight carbon wheels (87,000 more) Koenigsegg gives a slight respite with the upholstery, since you can choose between leather and alcantara in a wide palette of colors without increasing the bill, but it will go up, by 12,600 euros in particular, if we want to paint the carbon parts they cover black. the top of the console and the vents. A G-force meter in addition to the instrumentation could cost us 5,000 euros, and personalizing it with a plate with your name (or any other inscription) would be 2,400 ... without forgetting a fundamental element in a 1,600 horsepower car: the six harnesses points, which cost almost 6,500 euros more. Of course, seeing Khoshbin's reaction when checking the final invoice for his configuration (not including taxes, be careful), which amounted to 2.87 million ("not bad, I thought it would be more than 3 million", he says at the end of the video ) Koenigsegg still has room for the odd rise ...

The La Palma fire is in the phase of consolidation of its perimeter without flames but with smoke The po[CENSORED]tion of the Santo Domingo neighborhood in Garafía has been confined as a preventive measure against the evolution of the fire that has affected La Palma since Friday, and which has registered several outbreaks during the night. The fire is in the consolidation phase of its perimeter without flames but with smoke. The fire remains with a perimeter of between 16 and 17 kilometers and occupying an area of around 1,200 hectares. Likewise, the burned land is between 300 and 400 hectares of pine forest, grassland and scrubland, in addition to some affected homes without regretting human or animal losses. This has been indicated by the President of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torres, during an appearance at 11 a.m. to report on the evolution of the fire The Emergency and Security Coordinating Center 112 has indicated that some residents of the aforementioned neighborhood have moved to the shelter installed in the sports center and meanwhile the po[CENSORED]tion must remain in the town until further notice from the authorities. The Red Cross points out that three shelters have been set up where 14 volunteers from the organization operate and that accommodate 38 adults in Cuatro Caminos, seven in Los Llanos and 44 adults and a child in Santo Domingo. During the night, teams from the Military Emergency Unit (UME) that continued to attack the fire have faced several outbreaks in their assigned work zone. Likewise, the Tenerife firefighters who have traveled to help fight the fire on La Palma have faced a busy morning, as indicated on their Twitter account. The troops worked on the Llano Negro-Santo Domingo highway and in the hamlets of the area, the most complicated part of fire and which is located on its right flank. They are looking for a man who was seen setting fire in Garafía The Civil Guard is looking for a man wearing a red shirt, black shorts and a backpack who, apparently, has been seen setting fire in the coastal area of Las Tricias, in the municipality of Garafía. The information was released this Sunday by the mayor of Garafía, Yeray Rodríguez, who has called on neighbors and workers in the area to immediately notify the Civil Guard or the Local Police if they observe this man. The aerial media, which have already begun to unload, are now concentrated in the Llano Negro and Lomo de Las Palomas areas and the extinction operation is working on the consolidation of the perimeter. The tasks of extinguishing the ground equipment have been concentrated in the last hours in the hot spots and in cooling tasks and since the early hours of this Sunday the discharges of the aerial means have been added. In La Gomera, the Cabildo has reported that the Las Creces fire, which affects 1.5 hectares of the Garajonay National Park, has been stabilized tonight. In that area, as a preventive measure, elderly people and people with mobility problems were evicted from Las Hayas, who have been transferred to the social center of the town. The institution points out that the area stands out for being a steep terrain, with steep slopes and relatively low combustibility, and that the extinction works were favored in sections of the night due to the cessation of the gusts of wind, which at the beginning reached 60 kilometers per hour. The president of the Canarian government, Ángel Víctor Torres, has called for "maximum precaution" after a night of "intense and fruitful work" to contain the fire on La Palma and the outbreak of La Gomera. "With the dawn the aerial means go out. Moderate optimism in another day of very high heat and very low humidity in the Canary Islands. Maximum precaution", has indicated Torres in his Twitter account.
