![A heavily modified window of Wanna Decryptor from the infamous WannaCry ransomware.
The window title: "Wanna Rail (UDP<->CAN Converter)".
Header: "Ooops, your train can't start after maintenance!"
Section: "What happened to my train?"
"After spending over 10 days in required maintenance, your train does not start anymore. There's no error, it just doesn't. Maybe the third party service is incompetent and does not have the required know-how for the work? Or maybe the "if" statement with coordinates of known third party workshops had something to do with it? Who's gonna know?"
Section: "Can I get my train working?"
"Oh, you sound nervous. What about? Some contracted rides you have to make? :) Don't worry, the Authorized Service can check up your train this time. For a little price. We'll do the secret sequence of button presses and it's all right! But next time, you know what's the place to pay for the maintenance, right?"
Section: "This is ridiculous, I'll get hackers to handle this!"
"These are not our "if" statements, we would never do such thing. Hackers? Maybe they are the ones who did this?! How dare you touch our sacred intellectual property?! We're calling Homeland Security, Prosecutor, Intelligence Agency, Railway Transport Office, [text cuts off here]"
