Hello, all my files have .bora file extension and I can't open them. Is there a way to recover them?
I found a _readme.txt file which suggests contacting people at gorentos@bitmessage.ch or gerentoshelp@firemail.cc and pay them $490 or $980??? Is this a joke. I don't have that much money. What do I do now?
Dear Troy,
Unfortunately this means that you have accidentally installed a ransomware-type virus on your computer which has encrypted all your files. Now the attackers want you to pay a ransom, which I do not recommend doing as there are no guarantees they will provide you with .bora decryption tools.
Please read futher information about this new variant of STOP/DJVU ransomware in an article on how to remove Bora ransomware virus.
This is extremely sad! I'll wait for good news then. These files were very important to me!
