To illustrate, a file originally named 1.pdf will experience a change to something like 1.pdf.[5d3e178db8].[luckyguys@tutanota.com].ARS and become no longer accessible. The final step of AROS Ransomware is the creation of How_to_decrypt_files.txt, which is a text note containing decryption guidelines.

After this, a text file named README gets created. Within the file cybercriminals let victims know what should be done to recover the files. It is said victims have to write an email message to prestige.ranusomeware@proton.me and include their personally generated ID. Following this, extortionists will give more explicit instructions on how to purchase the decryption tool.
