How to remove BansomQare Manna ransomware

BansomQare Manna ransomware is a crypto-virus that locks your files and gives you 12 hours to pay up 

BansomQare Manna – dangerous ransomware that encrypts your files secretly and then informs you about the affected system and data loss. This ransomware-type^[1] virus is almost identical to WannaCry which name has been involved in several spam attacks recently.^[2] This malware is using .bitcoin file extension and makes all encrypted files to become useless. This virus is not choosing what to modify – BansomQare Manna ransomware encrypts everything from photos and videos to documents and archives. After the encryption is done, ransomware displays a pop-up window and places a text file “bitcoin2018.txt” to every existing folder. The document is a ransom note that contains various information about the encryption process. 

Typically, ransom message contains information which is related to the encryption procedure and what has to be done in order to recover locked data. Typically, BansomQare Manna provides in its ransom note: the name of the ransomware, encryption method, contact emails, ransom amount, the time period to pay the ransom, instructions on how to get cryptocurrency wallet, and a suggestion of test the decryption service. As you can see in the extraction of the ransom note, virus developers are requesting $100 in bitcoin. The cybercriminals are stating that the only way to decrypt your files is by contacting them, but we do not recommend communicating with these people in any way!

The ransom note of the BansomQare Manna ransomware reads the following:

Any contact between you and these criminals can lead you to further loss. As it is well known for cybersecurity researchers, extortionists tend to disappear and ignore their victims after the ransom is paid. Decryption tool that can be safe to use is not available. And this alleged key that virus developers say they have might not even exist. For this reason, researchers at Dieviren.de^[4] note that you need to focus on BansomQare Manna removal and only then worry about file decryption.

As we have already noted, the virus is clearly mimicking an infamous WannaCry ransomware. However, at the moment it seems that it is not as aggressive as the ransomware virus that it is trying to pretend as it has already managed to affect several hospitals and other governmental authorities. While the developers of this ransomware are actively encouraging people to pay the ransom, 2spyware experts recommend relying on anti-malware tools like FortectIntego and initiating BansomQare Manna removal right after it shows up on the system.

Ransomware viruses are dangerous and can lead to serious issues with your PC system. We advise you to remove BansomQare Manna virus using professional tools. This is the only way to be sure that no malicious pieces that belong to this ransomware are left on the computer. Only then you can try to recover your files using files' backups or methods that we provided below. 

Malicious files are typically spread with the help of spam

Ransomware viruses are one of the most harmful viruses that are actively spreading around. Just like previous examples, this malware is spread with the help of spam mainly. While browsing online, you need to be aware of potential threats behind every suspicious link or email attachment. You can spot spam emails immediately, especially if they have a questionable link or document attached.

Virus developers can hide behind the name of a well-known company, so you should always double check the sender. If you can see that the email address does not match the company's name, carefully check message body. Otherwise, you can install the file filled with malicious macros and similar content. 

To notice spam among your received email messages, look at:

• the sender. You should be capable of contacting the sender if you have any questions regarding the email message;
• typo mistakes;
• grammar mistakes;
• attachments. If the file is asking you to enable macros, this is a serious sign showing that you are under the risk of malware.

Make sure you delete malicious emails without opening and always download your software from certified providers. Any downloads or updates that are typically suggested thru advertisements are fake and should be treated with extreme carefulness.

Get rid of BansomQare Manna ransomware immediately after you spot it on your computer

To remove BansomQare Manna ransomware or other crypto-virus, we always recommend using anti-malware tools like FortectIntego, SpyHunterCombo Cleaner, MalwarebytesMalwarebytes.

It is important to perform BansomQare Manna removal right after this malware shows up on the system because ransomware can start another encryption procedure on your computer. When it comes to data recovery procedure, rely only on certified tools.
