Session Ransomware Creators Ask Victims to Contact Them via ICQ

Session Ransomware is a piece of malware, which could be delivered to your system through fake downloads, deceptive ads, or fraudulent email attachments. The best form of protection against malware intrusions of this sort is to use a reputable anti-malware software suite, as well as to stay away from suspicious downloads and websites. Never underestimate ransomware attacks as they have the ability to cause long-lasting damage to your files, leaving you with minimal data recovery options.

The Session Ransomware will append the suffix '.session;' to files it encrypts, making them easy to recognize. We assure you that the Session Ransomware attack is very destructive since this malware will need just a few minutes to ensure the full encryption of your documents, images, archives, and other files. Once the damage is done, the '+README-WARNING+.txt' ransom note is dropped on the desktop.

The criminals behind the Session Ransomware ask their victims for a ransom payment of Bitcoin, but the exact sum is not specified. They also urge the victim to get in touch with them via the ICQ profile @Ransomware_Decrypt.

We would not advise you to try to get in touch with Session Ransomware's operators because there is a very small chance that they will end up helping you. Even if you fulfill their demands, they might still end up scamming you. Paying ransomware creators is never a good idea, and it should be your very last resort.

If the Session Ransomware takes over your files, you should use an antivirus scanner to terminate it, and then explore other data recovery options.
