While I was watching porn another tab popped up attention?

Hey, there. Yesterday morning while I was watching porn another tab popped up attention on my mobile saying “Your mobile has been blocked for safety reasons”! And it accuses me of viewing banned pornography, child pornography, zoophilia, downloading pirated music and video and distributing copyrighted contents and so on. I violated some law articles of United States of American criminal law! It demanded a fine of 500 dollars paid by Paypal card. I tried to minimize or exit this attention screen, but it still blocks my mobile screen no matter how many times I try to restart my mobile device. Is it real thing? And am I going to be caught by the police?

While I was watching porn another tab popped up attention? What’s it?

I just found an attractive pornhub on the Internet but while I was watching porn another tab popped up attention about “FBI notice” saying I’ve been doing illegal activities breaking some American law articles. My phone now is blocked totally unless I pay them a fine of 500 dollars within 3 days! If I let 72 hours pass without payment, all staff things on my phone will be deleted and illegal activities will be told to all my contacts! How does that happen?

This ransomware has been spread for many years but cyber scammer keeps upgrading it to be more aggressive to target more and more devices including Windows computer, Mac machine, iPhone, iPad and android mobile like Samsung, LG, HTC, Motorola ,Huawei and ZTC etc. The ramsomware pretends to be those authentic government department and law enforcement office to display fake warning notice to scam people and extort people out of money in this way.

And you need to pay a fine amount ranging from $100-$500 or £100-£250 by entering a code of prepaid card like moneypak, Paypal, itune gifts cards, PafeSafeCard or Ukash. It also threatens that if you can’t pay within limited time, all staff things on device will be deleted and you will be prosecuted or served into jail for 5-8years! On the attention message screen, it shows your IP address, country, location, city even your contacts and your photo. All looks so genuine! Therefore, many victims are freaked out and scammed by this ransowmare.

How does the attention warning notice pops up while you’re watching porn?

While I was watching porn another tab popped up attention? Why you will get this fake notice attention while you’re just watching some porn or other video or just browsing the webpage, listenning to music or downloading some programs or apps you need? This ransowmare usually uses the Javascript technique to hijack the browser like Google Chrome, Safari or Internet on mobile then pops up the attention notice message to block the Internet access on your device. Sometimes, it will pop up an attractive thing like Pornhub or adult video while you’re browsing webpage or playing game to attract you to click to open, but once you click, this ransomware will be soon installed into your device system (Windows, iOS or Android) next few seconds. Then your device will be completely locked by this ransomware soon. The whole screen of your device will be taken over by that attention warning and you even can’t minimize or exit out that attention notice alert no matter how many times you’ve tried to restart the device. To unlock your device, you have to remove this ransowmare or virus as soon as possible. Paying that so-called fine amount of $500 or 100£ as it demands on blocker attention notice message will not help unlock the device.
