I'm At The Verge Of Losing My Final Yr Project Files: Ransomware Attack On My PC by Kinzeyfranks(m): 5:06pm On Jun 12, 2022
Hello guys,

Please I have a serious ransomware attack on my PC.
Been battling with since three-four days ago.

After I visited the linuxcommand.org page I was prompted to install some files which I thought was part of the learning materials. I never knew it was an eegf ransomware. Now, I have a serious ransomware attack on my PC. It has encrypted all my files and has appended .eegf extension to all of them.

It was followed with messages known as _readme.txt.
The .txt file contains two email addresses namely; support@bestyourmail.ch and supportsys@airmail.cc. and threats that I should pay them without further delay to get my files back.
Been battling with since three-four days ago.

How do I get rid of it and get my files back/de-encrypted?

What you need now is a higher antivirus software to fight this. I recommend Quick Heal Pro Antivirus. Buy the licensed version.
