Computer Blocked by Polícia de Segurança Pública Virus Ukash Scam €100?
If your computer screen is locked, and there is a message that appears to be from the Portuguese police demanding a payment of 100 Euro for several violations, then there is a very good chance that the computer has been infected by the Polícia de Segurança Pública Virus (Portugal) and action will need to be taken right away to get the virus removed. Like the Mexico Police virus, this is a very common ransomware attack that targets users in Portugal and the hackers infect file sharing sites as well as porn sites with this virus. The amount of traffic that these types of sites receive is extremely large and they are able to infect thousands of computers daily this way. Users that visit those types of sites tend to blindly click on pictures and download links without ever thinking that there is a potential risk for infection. Also, the fake warning message suggests that the PC has been locked due to the illegal use of copyright material, distribution of pornographic material, and also the involvement in SPAM.

But when they report that your computer is not safe, they can never really help you remove it from your hard disk. MSE may even tell you that your computer will start 1 minute later. But when your computer starts again, MSE will tell you that computer will restart again i minute later. So obviously, this Trojan virus can’t be removed by anti-virus. Read the rest of this post »
