If you are seeing “Your personal files are encrypted” message – you are infected with Fud@india.com Ransomware!
Fud@india.com is classified as ransomware. Once it has infected your system, it encrypts all of your files and holds them for ransom until you pay up. There are three ways the situation can go down after it first makes an appearance and threatens your files. One, you refuse to pay and your files stay encrypted. Two, you pay up and receive the necessary information with which to decrypt your files. And three, you pay up and your files still stay encrypted. That’s right, there is a strong possibility that even if you do whatever Fud@india.com demands from you, you might still be left with your files encrypted. In any case, Fud@india.com is a serious threat and should be removed from your system as soon as possible
How did I get infected with Fud@india.com?
Fud@india.com resorts to the usual antics in order to infiltrate your PC. Some of the most common entry points it finds is through compromised web links, spam email messages, false system upgrades, and freeware downloads from suspicious sources. These are all old but gold ways of infiltration that help Fud@india.com trick users into installing it on their PC.
Why is Fud@india.com Dangerous?
Once in, Fud@india.com Ransomware encrypts all of the files on your computer starting with photos, all the way up to music, videos and documents. As soon as it has finished with the encryption, it shows you a message informing you of the conditions of the “release” of your files. It basically tells you what you need to do if you want your files decrypted – how much you need to pay and how long you have to do so. The message is the only thing on your desktop, but don’t be alarmed, if you restart the computer, your icons will reappear and the message will be gone. Despite your best hopes though, your files will still remain encrypted. If you decide to take your chances and pay the ransom, Fud@india.com requires you to download the Tor Internet browser and once you’ve installed it, you’ll find further instructions there. Best case scenario, you’ll receive the decryption key and restore your files. Worst case scenario, you’ll lose all your files. Either way, you should remove Fud@india.com as soon as you possibly can.
