What is Fatp ransomware?
Fatp is the name of a new ransomware program, which is to say, a program that encrypts all your files and demands payment for decrypting them. It belongs to the STOP/Djvu family of ransomware and is very similar to other ransomware in this family. You can see this similarity for yourself if you compare this Fatp with any other STOP/Djvu virus, for example Zatp.
After encrypting the files, Fatp also changes their names, adding .fatp file extension. So “cat.jpg” would be renamed to “cat.jpg.fatp”, “invoice.docx” would become “invoice.docx.fatp” and so on. The virus also leaves a ransom note named “_readme.txt” on the Desktop. The full text of that note is available on the image above, but here’s the summary.
The hackers want $980 to decrypt the files. A 50% discount is available for those who contact the hackers quickly, however, this is just a manipulation tactic. In fact you shouldn’t contact the hackers at all. Often, the hackers would completely ignore their victims after receiving payment, without bothering to decrypt the files at all. The lazy, nearly-identical nature of STOP/Djvu viruses makes this possibility even more likely.
The guide below provides an alternative to paying the hackers; read it to learn how to remove Fatp ransomware and decrypt .fatp files for free.
