A newly uncovered threat, the Black Hunt Ransomware possesses highly destructive capabilities since when it infects a computer, all the files stored on the targeted machine will suffer a nearly irreversible encryption, making these files inaccessible and unusable. The Black Hunt Ransomware will make it easy to know which files are damaged because it modifies their native names by appending them the '.Black' file extension. When the file encryption is done, the Black Hunt Ransomware will create two ransom notes named "#BlackHunt_ReadMe.hta" and "#BlackHunt_ReadMe.txt" and deliver them to the victim's desktop.
These ransom notes carry various instructions for the victims and warn them that the criminals handling the Black Hunt Ransomware have collected highly confidential data from the hacked systems and sent it to a remote server controlled by them. If victims disagree with their demands, they claim that the data will be released publicly, and the files will be lost forever. As we can see, the only option left to the victims of the Black Hunt Ransomware is to pay the ransom if they want their data back. However, the worse choice a victim can make is to reward criminals by sending them money.
Both ransom notes provide three email addresses that can be used to contact the hackers, sentafe@rape.lol (prima, justin@cyberfear.com and magicback@onionmail.org (secondary) and a link to a website where the victims can check their data situation.
A pop-up window will show the #BlackHunt_ReadMe.hta ransom note, which reads:
