What is Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware?
There is a lot of information in the name of Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware, an infection that was created to encrypt personal files. For one, the email address in the name is both an extension that is attached to encrypted files and the only line of communication that victims have with cyber criminals. This devious threat comes from a group of malware that takes personal files hostage to push victims into paying huge ransom fees. Among hundreds of others, we have Scarab-Horsuke Ransomware, Robin Hood And Family Ransomware, Mr.Dec Ransomware, and various other malicious infections alike. Needless to say, every single one of them deserves elimination, and you can learn how to delete these specific threats using guides available on Anti-Spyware-101.com. In this report, of course, we discuss the removal of Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware. If this malware has invaded your operating system already, you need to eliminate it even if you lose your files or manage to get them decrypted. If you want to learn about that, you should continue reading.
How does Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware work?
Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware might have been introduced to you using a malicious downloader or a corrupted spam email. In fact, many different methods are employed by cyber criminals to spread malicious ransomware, and so we cannot really say how this malware got into your operating system too. It is most important for the developer/distributor that the infection is spread silently, so that the victim would not delete Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware before it encrypts files. When it does that, all documents, photos, and similar personal files are encrypted, and their names are modified too. For example, a file called “example.doc” is renamed to “example.doc.[everbe@airmail.cc].everbe.” The last part (“.everbe”) is recognized as a new extension. Would anything change if you just deleted the extension? Unfortunately, it would not because the data of the file is encrypted, and only a special decryption key can decipher the encryption algorithm. How can you obtain this key? Most likely, you cannot. Of course, that does not stop cyber criminals from making you think that you can obtain it by communicating with them and then paying a ransom. You are urged to contact cyber criminals via a file named “!=How_recovery_files=!.txt, and you will need to remove it once you initiate the elimination process.
The ransom note file is created by Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware in every single directory and folder that contains corrupted files. It is a simple text file that does not include malicious code, and so opening it cannot do you any harm. The message within the file suggests that you have to email everbe@airmail.cc “if you want to restore your files.” To identify yourself, you are requested to send a special ID code as well. If you establish communication, you will be asked to pay a ransom. We cannot say how much you would be asked, but even if the sum is small, you need to think if you should pay it. Cyber criminals are not trustworthy, and expecting them to provide you with a decryptor is quite naive. If you are desperate to get your private files back, you should at least check your backups to see if copies exist, and look into using free and legitimate file decryptors first. Of course, at the time of research, such software did not work for Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware victims, but maybe something will be created by the time you are reading this report.
How to remove Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware
If your personal files were corrupted by Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware, you might be thinking of ways to recover them. It would be ideal if backup copies of the corrupted files existed in external or online backups. If that is not the case, you really need to start backing up files once you delete Everbe@airmail.cc Ransomware. Next, you can try using a free file decryptor, but a tool that would be able to decipher the key used by this malware did not exist at the time of research. You also have the option to pay the ransom, but that is unlikely to be a legitimate option. Most likely, you would gain nothing by giving up your money. At the end of the day, whatever happens, you need to delete the infection, and you need to do it fast. If you are unable to find and erase the infection manually – and you can use a rough guide below to help you understand the process – you should immediately install anti-malware software to simultaneously erase malware and protect your system.
