Remove GABUTS Project Ransomware

GABUTS Project Ransomware is a dangerous file-locker whose author is unlikely to be serious about their ransom demands. Unfortunately, the project is still serious – it is able to cause long-lasting damage to files by encrypting their contents. After the GABUTS Project Ransomware locks a file, it will add the suffix '.im back' to its name. It then drops the ransom note 'gabuts project is back.txt' on the desktop.

The GABUTS Project Ransomware may reach victims through fake downloads such as software activators and game cracks. The creator may also use fake email attachments to deliver the dangerous payload. Needless to say, it is best to avoid interacting with random files you encounter online, unless your system is protected by an up-to-date antivirus software suite.

The reason why we say that this project's creator is unlikely to be serious about their demands is because they ask for a ransom payment of 100 Bitcoin. Needless to say, nobody would agree to spend $550,000 to pay a ransom fee to an anonymous cybercriminals. The attacker also provides the email baholo6031@xeiex.com, as well as a downloadable file titled 'decrypt_file_zip.'

Needless to say, victims of the GABUTS Project Ransomware should ignore this offer. Instead, the best way to proceed is to run an antivirus tool to eliminate the threat permanently. This would prevent it from damaging your files even further. After his, it is recommended to try out alternative data recovery tools and options. However, the best way to undo the damage is to restore files via a backup.
