What is Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware?
Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware is a dangerous infection that slithers in without your permission and encrypts your personal files using the AES-256 encryption key. Once the files are encrypted, the malicious threat displays a notification that demands you to email cyber criminals. If you do that, these criminals demand a ransom payment in return of a decryption key or decryption software. Now, if you pay the ransom, you could get your files decrypted, or you could get scammed. Both of these scenarios are possible, and so you have to be careful when making the decision, especially if the ransom requested is very big. In fact, even if the ransom fee is small, there are things to consider. Unfortunately, you will not free your files by removing Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware, but that, of course, does not mean that you should put up with this infection. As soon as you figure out what you want to do with your personal files, you need to delete this malicious ransomware immediately.
How does Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware work?
Our researchers at Anti-Spyware-101.com have previously analyzed a bunch of ransomware infections whose creators use the inda.com emailing service. Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware is accompanied by Siddhiup2@india.com Ransomware, Systemdown@india.com Ransomware, and many other similar threats. It is unknown if these threats were created by the same party, but it is most likely that they were created using the same open-source code. The name of the malicious ransomware comes from the email address that is represented as a new extension added to the encrypted files. For example, a file named “test.doc” will be renamed to “test.doc.{Bitcoinpay@india.com}” once the ransomware encrypts data. At the moment, this ransomware cannot be decrypted by third-party tools, which means that you either follow the demands of cyber criminals, or you lose your files. Needless to say, neither of these options is attractive. Of course, you should research third-party tools before you choose either of these two options because maybe a legitimate decryptor has been created by the time you are reading this report.
Once the files are encrypted, Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware drops an image file called “decryption instructions.jpg”. This file carries a very laconic message that says: “Bitcoinpay@india.com Text me.” Of course, if you realize that you cannot open any of your personal files, the chances are that you will follow the demand and email the provided address. As mentioned previously, cyber criminals will introduce you to a ransom payment next. It is up to you whether or not you pay the ransom, but our malware experts do not recommend it. There is a huge risk that you will give your money for nothing in return, and so we cannot advise you making the jump and paying the huge fee. Obviously, if you are thinking about paying it, make sure you exhaust all other options. As mentioned before, you should check for legitimate file decryptors. Also, check your backup systems – which you should do on a malware-free computer – if maybe your files are securely backed up. You should also think if the files are really worth the price that is demanded. In any outcome, do not forget to delete Bitcoinpay@india.com Ransomware.
