What is f1220@tuta.io?

First discovered by avman, F1220@tuta.io is a high-risk ransomware-type virus, and a new variant of Scarab ransomware. F1220@tuta.io infiltrates systems and encrypts users' data, renaming files using random strings and adding new extensions that are also completely random.

For example, a file named "1.jpg" might be encrypted and then renamed to a filename such as "eZaZHsST4JQdb4.iudgkwv". Encrypted data immediately becomes unusable and indistinguishable. Each affected/encrypted folder contains a "HOW TO RECOVER ENCRYPTED FILES.TXT" text file.
