YOUR_LAST_CHANCE Ransomware

What is YOUR_LAST_CHANCE?

First discovered by malware researcher, GrujaRS, YOUR_LAST_CHANCE is an updated variant of high-risk ransomware called Nemesis. As with its predecessor, YOUR_LAST_CHANCE encrypts most stored files and renames them. This variant appends filenames with the victim's unique ID and ".YOUR_LAST_CHANCE" extension (hence the ransomware's name).

For example, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "sample.jpg.id_3057868259_.YOUR_LAST_CHANCE". Additionally, YOUR_LAST_CHANCE automatically opens a temporary text file ("temp000000.txt") and generates another text file called "_RESTORE FILES_.txt" and stores a copy in every existing folder.

   
CROWN Ransomware

What is CROWN?

CROWN is yet another high-risk ransomware discovered by Petrovic. As with most of these infections, CROWN stealthily infiltrates computers and encrypts stored files. In doing so, CROWN adds the ".CROWN" extension (hence its name) to each filename.

Encrypted data immediately becomes unusable. Furthermore, CROWN changes the desktop wallpaper and stores two files on the desktop: "Decrypter.exe" (which displays a pop-up window) and "HOW TO DECRYPT FILES.txt".

   
Qulab Stealer

What is Qulab?

Qulab is high-risk malware written in the AutoIt scripting language. The purpose of this malware is to steal various personal details. Note that the presence of Qulab can cause a number of problems including serious privacy issues, financial loss, etc.

   
Dqb Ransomware

What is Dqb?

Dqb is yet another ransomware infection discovered by Jakub Kroustek. It is quite advanced and belongs to the Dharma malware family. After successful infiltration, Dqb encrypts most stored data using RSA-1024 cryptography and renames each file by appending the victim's unique ID, developer's email address, and ".dqb" extension.

For example, "1.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "1.jpg.id-1E857D00.[btcdecoding@qq.com].dqb". After successful encryption, Dqb generates a text file ("RETURN FILES.txt", which is placed on the desktop) and opens a pop-up window.

   
Edchargina.pro Ads

What is edchargina[.]pro?

edchargina[.]pro is a rogue website that is virtually identical to nanoadexchange.com, chainthorn.com, chanelets-aurning.com, and many others. It displays dubious content and redirects users to other dubious sites.

Research shows that many users visit edchargina[.]pro inadvertently, since they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive advertisements delivered by other rogue websites. PUAs infiltrate computers without users' consent. In addition to enforcing redirects, they record user-system information and deliver intrusive advertisements.

   
Save Ransomware

What is Save ransomware?

First discovered by malware security researcher, safety, Save is yet another high-risk ransomware infection from the Dharma family.

Following successful infiltration, Save encrypts most stored files and appends filenames with the victim's unique ID, the developers' email address, and the ".save" extension (e.g., "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "sample.jpg.id-1E857D00.[seavays@aol.com].save".

Additionally, Save opens a pop-up window and stores the "RETURN FILES.txt" text file on the desktop.

   
NameSync Adware (Mac)

What is NameSync?

Identical to GeneralNetSearch, Resourcetools, GlobalTechSearch, and a number of others, NameSync is an adware-type application that claims to enhance the browsing experience. Initially, NameSync may seem legitimate, however, this app typically infiltrates systems without permission. In addition, it delivers intrusive advertisements and causes unwanted browser redirects.

   
GoBotKR Malware

What is GoBotKR?

GoBotKR is high-risk trojan-type infection that entered the scene in May, 2018. It is essentially an updated version of another trojan called GoBot2, which is written in the Go programming language. GoBotKR opens a 'backdoor' for cyber criminals to access and remotely control the infected machine.

Research shows that this malware is distributed using torrent websites and targets mainly South Korean users. The presence of this infection on your system can lead to various issues and, therefore, it should be eliminated immediately.

   
Lokas Ransomware

What is Lokas?

Lokas is yet another ransomware from Djvu family. It was firstly discovered by malware researcher Michael Gillespie. This malware is designed to lock (encrypt) victim's data and to make ransom demands. While encrypting, Lokas appends each filename with ".lokas" extension.

For instance, a file named "sample.jpg" would be renamed to "sample.jpg.lokas" and so forth. Aside from encrypting, Lokas creates a text file ("_readme.txt") and drops a copy in every existing folder.

   
Nitroflare.com Suspicious Website

What is nitroflare[.]com?

nitroflare[.]com is a rogue website that supposedly provides free file hosting services. Judging on the appearance alone, nitroflare[.]com may seem appropriate and handy. Nevertheless, developers monetize this site by using rogue advertising networks which promote unreliable (potentially malicious) websites.

Moreover, this site is full of software cracks that are available for download and, as we already know, most of cracking tools are fake and cyber criminals use them to spread high-risk malware infections.
