Scarab-dy8wud Ransomware will encode your files, because that's the primary intent of ransomware. Infection can have severe consequences, as the files you can no longer access could be permanently damaged. Also it is quite easy to get the infection. If your computer is infected, you probably opened a spam email attachment, clicked on a malicious advert or fell for a fake download. Once the encoding process is finished, victims are asked for a ransom, and if they give into the requests, supposedly, cyber criminals will help them decode files. Depending on what kind of ransomware you have, the money asked will differ. Whatever you're requested to pay by this threat, consider the situation carefully before you do. Who's going to stop criminals from simply taking your money, giving nothing in exchange. It wouldn't be shocking if you're left with undecrypted data, and there would be plenty more like you. We recommend to invest the money into backup, instead. From external hard drives to cloud storage, there are many backup options available, you simply need to pick the one best suiting your needs. And if by chance you do have backup, simply uninstall Scarab-dy8wud Ransomware and then proceed to data recovery. These threats aren't going away any time soon, so you will have to prepare yourself. If you wish to remain safe, you have to familiarize yourself with potential contaminations and how to guard yourself.
