What is Rans_recovery Ransomware?

Rans_recovery Ransomware is a vicious computer threat that encrypts files on an infected PC just before displaying a ransom note demanding payment from the computer user to restore the same files. Rans_recovery Ransomware gets its name from the file extension that it appends to all files that it encrypts tagging them with the .rans_recovery extension.

The Rans_recovery Ransomware ransom note reads as follows:

~~~ Hello! Your company has been hacked! ~~~

>>>> Your data are stolen and encrypted

>>>> What guarantees that we will not deceive you?

We are not a politically motivated group and we do not need anything other than your money.
    
If you pay, we will provide you the programs for decryption and we will delete your data.
Life is too short to be sad. Be not sad, money, it is only paper.
    
If we do not give you decrypters, or we do not delete your data after payment, then nobody will pay us in the future.
Therefore to us our reputation is very important. We attack the companies worldwide and there is no dissatisfied victim after payment.

>>>> You need to contact us by email rans_recovery@aol.com and decrypt some files for free

>>>> Your personal ID:

-

>>>> Provide your personal ID in the email

>>>> Warning! Do not DELETE or MODIFY any files, it can lead to recovery problems!

>>>> Warning! If you do not pay the ransom we will attack your company repeatedly again!

While the encrypted files may not be accessed the Rans_recovery Ransomware threat will continually claim that by making a ransom payment the user will get a key to decrypt the files. Such an offer seems great but the hackers behind Rans_recovery Ransomware may not come through on their promises. Computer security experts will make the case that paying a ransom is not a good idea in most cases as it will just empower ransomware hackers more.

Instead of paying the ransom, those victimized by Rans_recovery Ransomware should act to first eliminate the threat by using an antimalware program. Once Rans_recovery Ransomware is removed, the user can then restore any leftover encrypted files by using a recent backup of their system.
