Psychopath is a ransomware that will take over your computer functionality and lock your files until you pay a “ransom”, in the form of Bitcoin cryptocurrency, in order to get access back. What it does is modify the file names with a unique string ID assigned to the victim. It then appends – [psychopat7@tutanota.com].[4-character string file extension] to each file. The ransom note from the Read_Me!_.txt file reads:
Your Data Locked.

Email Address :psychopath7@tutanota.com
It disguises itself as a legit official warning when in reality it is all fake. Don’t fall for the trap and don’t pay any ransom fees. With software, you can remove the Psychopath ransomware easily. This type of infection can be downloaded on your computer for many reasons such as malicious websites, codecs, or downloads. Be sure to remove it immediately.
