Maybe offering a reward is a good way to reduce the anonymity of the person, since rewards can be tracked.
Speaking only for myself.. If I were to go the trouble to anonymously tip somebody off about a security vulnerability, it would be because I cared that they were secure and that I did not wish to be identified. I would neither expect nor accept a reward.

I think just the fact that they didn't do this points to malevolence. I would expect the ransom demands to follow shortly.
