How to remove RCMP Virus from Android Phone

Holy moly! Is that real I got a wanted poster from Royal Canadian Mounted Police from my smart phone? It asked me to pay $300 for breaking same laws. It’s something about copyright which I don’t comprehend very much; otherwise the police will put me in jail. Well, first of all, I have to confess, I did download some free German songs from a site that claim all songs are free when I answered a call of nature.That was a unintentional behavior, I’m always fiddling with my phone in the bathroom, you know, it’s the best way to kill time. And this time, I was visiting some music website to search information about new songs; I could not remember how many sites I browsed, and which one leaded me to Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I don’t want to get into trouble; normally I will pay for the music copyright for the songs, but these German songs I could not find any download resource in each big famous website, forum or anything else, so I made a mistake to trust the free download site. Anyway, I don’t know what to do at the moment, it really upsets me, I don’t want to be a poor gullible person who pays for the money, but I’m also afraid if the RCMP thing is true. seriously, what should I do? Please help!

Brief Introduction to RCMP Virus on Phone

RCMP Virus not only can affect your Mac or computer, but also screw up your phone as well now. It has been widely infected in North America, mostly in Canada. Now RCMP virus is already spreading to smart phones. It’ll be rampant and getting worse in the future. Both computer users and phone users, when get infected by RCMP virus, will have the similar warning page on their screen. If you are seeing an “Your phone has been blocked up for safety reason!” notification that pretends to be from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, then your phone has probably locked by this virus. That’s a bogus notification, and it threats you by telling you that you had violated laws with the distribution of pornographic materials, SPAM and copyright content. In order to make this bogus notification more real, there will be some private information about users on the screen, such as IP, which some people may really think that’s true. Well, I would like to teach you a lesson here, the message displayed by the threat can be localized depending on the user’s location with text written in the appropriate language. And you may also read from the screen that, when you pay the fine, your phone will be unblocked in 3 to 12 hours after the money is put into states’ account. Let me tell you something, even you really pay for the money, your phone will still be locked, nothing really changed, no matter you wait for that long or not. Cyber criminals often updated the design of the lock screen. However, I have to remind all innocent victims, you should not pay any money which the page asks you to at no circumstances, even if you thought you actually did something wrong. There’s no such thing like the government or Police will ask you to pay 300$ from the internet, anyway, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police will never lock down your computer or monitor your online activities.

There are several ways for your phone to get this virus, for example, malicious websites, or legitimate websites that have been hacked, and some unknown Apps from unusual android market, once your phone had been infected by this virus, your phone will be completely locked and you can do nothing about it. If you are familiar with FBI virus and GVU virus, then you’ll not be surprised by RCMP virus, they are tricks designed to blackmail people by using fake information and the name of other fake department. After that, this ransomware will threaten you to pay $300 through recommended payment scheme, then it will randomly give you a so-called unlock code which will not help at all.

RCMP Virus may also use spam email messages to spread a copy of the malicious code. These email probably contain many malicious links which you don’t know that’s dangerous, and it also persuades phone users to open and download it. Once you follow what it told you to do, it automatically runs a script that forces affected phone to download and execute malware from a remote server. Most of the users got this virus is because they can’t resist being curious as to what the email is referring to – and click on a link embedded inside the email. For example, after you click the link, the website will trick the users into installing some disguised regular Apps, but they are actually bogus update for Adobe Flash Player or another piece of APP. And with that, your phone is infected with RCMP virus.
