Hello.
I wanted to ask you for some help if you can.
I, who am writing to you, am a blind person/can't see.
In August last year, I formatted the PC.
when I was trying to put a crack in a software, a ransomware called flamingo was introduced and it encrypted almost all the necessary files, it also created a txt file in each folder.
in this txt file, when I open it, it instructs me to pay money.
Do you know any solution to recover the documents by removing the second suffix with a decryptor?
the second suffix placed on the file is: .lAeSUZDqb
I also reformatted it to remove the ransomware, but I saved the encrypted ones on another external ssd hoping that a decryptor will come out.

My previous reply in your other topic is still the same. There is nothing new to report...this ransomware is still not decryptable without paying the ransom (not advisable) and obtaining the private encryption keys from those who created the ransomware.
 
If you want to check for updates....there is an ongoing discussion in this topic where victims can post comments, ask questions and seek further assistance.

Rather than have everyone with individual topics, it would be best (and more manageable for staff) if you posted any more questions, comments or requests for assistance in the above support topic discussion. To avoid unnecessary confusion, this topic is closed.
 
Thanks
