This string ends in ‘=’ which indicates a Base64 encryption. So if you go to CyberChef, an online tool for encrypting and decrypting, add a recipe for decoding from Base64 you get (pre-populated link):
7q 20 71 63 75 53 20 79 61 73 6q 78 63 6o 45 20 65 78 79 64 4o 20 66 65 76 43 20 69 75 68 4q 20 6o 6q 61 6o 49 5s 20 6o 78 6r 74 41 20 61 65 4s 5s 20 74 61 68 76 44 20 6o 6p 78 64 65 6s 76 4n 20 69 75 68 4q 7o 20 61 62 69 46 20 6q 68 66 47 20 68 6r 6n 72 54
This is a sequence of numbers that also contains the letters ‘n’, ‘o’, ‘p’, ‘q’, ‘r’, ‘s’. This is unusual and does not match to an known encryption output. However Base16, or hex, contains numbers and six letters of a-f. So if you add a recipe to convert the ‘n’ to ‘a’, the ‘o’ to ‘b’ etc (also known at ROT13) you get (pre-populated link):
7D 20 71 63 75 53 20 79 61 73 6D 78 63 6B 45 20 65 78 79 64 4B 20 66 65 76 43 20 69 75 68 4D 20 6B 6D 61 6B 49 5F 20 6B 78 6E 74 41 20 61 65 4F 5F 20 74 61 68 76 44 20 6B 6C 78 64 65 6F 76 4A 20 69 75 68 4D 7B 20 61 62 69 46 20 6D 68 66 47 20 68 6E 6A 72 54
Now you have valid hex you can add a recipe to decode to text and you get (pre-populated link) :
