GhostMail is shutting down as of Sept.1st. If you have not downloaded any emails, you are advised to do so before the deadline.

The company made this statement:

GhostMail in its current form will be closed down as per 1. of September 2016.

Since we started our project, the world has changed for the worse and we do not want to take the risk of supplying our extremely secure service to the wrong people – it’s simply not worth the risk.

In general, we believe strongly in the right to privacy, but we have taken a strategic decision to only supply our platform and services to the enterprise segment.

We hope you understand this decision and we refer to other free services available, as an alternative to our platform i.e. Protonmail.

PRO users will be refunded and contacted directly.

GhostMail, which offered "military encrypted and self-destructing email accounts", has suggested users move to ProtonMail as a substitute.

GhostMail is concerned that criminals and terrorists might abuse its services to hide their communications.

GhostMail has indicated that it will still be available for enterprise customers.
