Remove ZAPS Ransomware
The ZAPS Ransomware is a STOP/Djvu variation that can encrypt your data permanently. Its attack can leave you in a helpless situation, because there is no free decryption software that you can use to restore your data. The criminals behind this project promise to provide you with a decryptor, but only if you agree to pay a hefty ransom fee. The full instructions and their message can be found in the '_readme.txt' note that the ZAPS Ransomware delivers after completing its attack.
Files that this threat encrypts will be marked with the '.zaps' extension. The crooks demand to receive a ransom payment through Bitcoin. They also provide two email addresses for contact – manager@mailtemp.ch and helpmanager@airmail.cc.
Trying to purchase a decryptor off of cybercriminals is never a good idea. Not only is it a bad idea to give them money, but you are also very likely to end up scammed. Many ransomware victims who have agreed to pay ransom fees ended up having their money stolen. If the ZAPS Ransomware takes over your files and system, it is best to use an up-to-date anti-malware scanner to eliminate the threat. Once you do this, you will be able to take your time when trying to recover your data. The best option would be to restore them from a backup, but you should also consider exploring popular data recovery tools and methods.
