Is there a way to know which account gets how much?

The bitcoin address for deposit is announced by the ransom holder, so it can be monitored publicly. See blockchain.info

I don't believe there is a way to determine the balance behind an address. Perhaps the amount that was sent to it? I know that information is out there in the network, but I don't know if it can be monitored.
