FBI Moneypak virus (known as FBI virus) is defined as a ransomware just like other one, for example, Gema and
GVU from Germany, Sacem from France, Buma Stemra from Netherland, Politie Federal Computer Crime Unit
Ukash virus from Belgium and Computer Crime & Intellectual Property Section from USA. What does it mean when
your laptop says that your computer has been blocked and you have to pay a three­hundred­dollar fine to unblock it
within 48 hours or will be charged as a criminal? Computer locked up on the screen is something from fbi.gov saying
you have the FBI virus and demanding pay the $100 fine via Moneypak. The warning message popped up and said it
was from the FBI, which pretty much ‘locked my computer unless I agreed to pay 100 dollars within the next 72
hours’. Otherwise, it won’t let you do anything, and you have only 72 hours to pay the fine. In most scenarios, the
warning message displays FBI at the top as well as the copyright of the criminal code of the USA; it will also try to
deceive you it is from the FBI federal bureau of investigation and requires your attention immediately. You couldn’t
get the PC to respond to anything while it was running as it is blocked by FBI virus hoax. When the FBI virus has
locked your computer, you need to send 100 dollars to unlock your computer. Otherwise, the infected computer will
be hijacked by the FBI Moneypak virus warning on my computer Moneypak warning blocked the whole screen and
required Moneypak payment as always. Have you seen such bug that locks down the PC and displays an IE screen
saying the computer is locked down by the FBI virus and you must pay a $100 fine to unlock the PC?

PCs via an email link or porn websites when the victims are surfing online. If you clicked on the link, the virus like FBI
Moneypak virus loaded itself prior to entering the desktop. Many computer users tried several times on different

YooSecurity has been receiving questions on a daily basis on these inquires from our users worldwide. What is FBI
Moneypak virus? Why do I get a message saying the FBI shut down my computer, and how to get on my computer
after it has been locked from a FBI Moneypak virus? Somehow it takes over computer screen kiddie porn $450,
and how to remove rid of FBI Moneypak virus in command prompt? When I log in my laptop, and then found a
message blocking from FBI violation; is it FBI Internet scams Moneypak as the virus says to pay fine for looking at
bad pornography. I was looking through a porn site and now my computer is lock; my computer shows a screen that
says it is locked unless I pay 200 dollars, and how to unlock fake FBI virus scam on computer; Can the fine@fbi.gov,
FBI warning virus, green dot Moneypak FBI virus replace hard drive? Or the FBI shut down my computer and want
me to send $200.00 to Moneypack only? One of these victims who got the FBI Moneypak malware said: “A few
hours back, I was looking at some websites. After that whenever I connect my laptop to the Internet, I am receiving
an warning that my PC is locked and within the next 2 hours I am supposed to make a payment of $100 to the FBI
using Moneypak or an criminal case will be filled against me (It really scared me!). Is this an legitimate warning or
my laptop is effected by FBI Moneypak virus? Yes, it is indeed a virus scam. Like many locked computer
ransomware, it claims “Attention! Your PC is blocked due to at least one of the reasons specified below” or FBI
notification of computer violation and fine. To unlock the computer, you are obliged to pay a fine of $100. These virus
scams just want to extort you to pay the forfeit through Paysafecard, Moneypak or Ukash pre­paid payment services
to “receive the unlock code and avoid FBI charges”. Don’t be a victim to pay the ransom fine. As long as you take
actions to effectively remove FBI Moneypak virus from your computer, you won’t get any further damages in the
future. Of course, you won’t be prosecuted either, if you don’t pay the Moneypak fine.

This attack is spread through malicious websites that have been set up by the hackers, as well as real websites that
have been infected with the Green Dot Moneypak virus. When these websites are visited it is very easy for the virus
file to simply be dropped onto the visitors computer. Another way that it is spread across millions of computers is
through mass emailing. This SPAM tactic involves sending millions of emails a day that contain an attachment that
contains the virus download and when the attachment is opened it will automatically install the virus on the
computer. The body of the email is written in a way that encourages the reader to open the attachment, often
claiming that it is a picture of them or some other personal information that will spark their interest enough to click
on. This is why opening emails and attachments from unknown senders is so dangerous!
Once installed, the virus will block the operation of all applications and a lock screen of the warning message will be
displayed. The IP address of the computer is displayed and it states that it will be used for future identification. The
webcam (if on is present) can also be hijacked and it will display a live video feed on the lock screen, stating that the
video is being watched in order to identify the owner so criminal charges can be filed. Also, it states that pictures
saved on the computer will also be used for identification purposes. This is enough to scare many users into thinking
that this is a real message coming from the FBI and they quickly pay the fine out of fear and to avoid the criminal
charges. Here is a sample of how the FBI Moneypak virus message appears:
“I watched porn and this FBI virus cyber security locked my PC and asked for $200 and you have to pay the fine in
24 hours. PC is locked unless I enter a MoneyPak code. It shows your computer has been blocked you must buy
Moneypak card. United states cyber security IP location shows your PC is blocked due to at least one of the
reasons specified below is one of its symptom”. Many victims might suffer from FBI Moneypak malware from the
internet, one of the victims said:” I woke up in the morning and turned on my computer as usual and just when I
logged in my ENTIRE Screen becomes this FBI virus alert”. This FBI message covers my screen like a screensaver,
there is no “X” out button or anything. All I received is FBI virus scam blocking internet pay a fine within 48 hours, and
you need to pay to unlock”. Actually, user can’t do anything if his computer has been attacked by such FBI

Best Way to Remove FBI Moneypak Virus Efficiently
Can the FBI lock your IP address? How to delete FBI Moneypak scam that is on the computer screen? Many
computer users have been having troubles with the FBI Moneypak virus and were wondering if someone could help
them out with that odd thing. This Moneypak virus is a ransomware attack that blocks the computer and displays a
fraudulent message that is made to look like it is coming from the local law enforcement agency. The computer user
is accused of participating in SPAM email campaigns, distributing pornographic material on the web, and also for
several copyright violations due to downloading illegal files. There are two main ways that the hackers infects
computers with this attack, and the first way is through a very aggressive email campaign, where they send millions
of emails off each day with a message that encourages the user to open the attachment that is also sent. This
attachment contains the FBI virus files, and once it is opened the ransomware virus will automatically install on the
computer. They make the message appear to come from popular websites and from people claiming that they could
a picture of the user or some other piece of information that will trigger their curiosity and cause them to open the
attachment.
Another way that they mass spread this attack is through files sharing websites and other malicious websites that
they control. They infect the majority of the users through file sharing sites, and they simply package the virus along
with popular downloads and when while the user thinks that he or she is installing the files that they had originally
requested, little do they know that once installed, the FBI Moneypak virus will begin to change the system settings,
blocking all other programs and applications, and will launch the block screen and display the warning message. It
happens very quickly, and one wrong click can create quite the nightmare for a PC user that has been infected by
this attack.
The computer will be blocked even if the user attempts to start the computer in safe mode, and they will soon
realize that their PC is completely blocked, causing them to pay attention to the message displayed on the block
screen and they will begin to think this is real communication from the authorities. The user will be asked to pay a
fine ranging from $100 to $300 in order to unblock the computer and also to avoid further fines and also possible
criminal charges. The amount of the fine varies depending on the version of the FBI virus being displayed.
Once the FBI virus is installed on the computer there is only one way to remove the block, and that is by deleting all
of the files from the system that are linked to this attack. While the message states that the block will be removed
once the payment is verified this is not true at all, and the user will be left in the same situation, minus the money
they just handed over to the hackers. Since the files are installed deep into the directory it is important that a manual
removal approach is taken, as this ensures that all areas are checked and the infected files are deleted. The
instructions listed below provide the details and steps necessary to fully delete the FBI Moneypak virus and restore
the computer back to its original settings.
Though you are feeling scared on the facts that your computer is locked by FBI virus or United States cyber security
virus, manual removal of these variants won’t be an easy task for regular computer users. You’re required to be very
familiar with how to operate computer in safe mode and know how to edit Windows Registry entries.
Step A: Restart your computer in safe mode. To do this, please press F8 key before the system is started like this:

The Variants Of FBI Moneypak Virus Scam (also Known as FBI Virus)
Your Computer has been locked virus (original version of FBI Moneypak virus scam): If your computer has been
blocked by this hoax, your whole screen has been taken over with that message. Is Your Computer has been locked
by police and they ask for pay a fine by either Ukash or Paysafecard? No, it is not from US Government but a scam.
Don’t be foolish to pay it otherwise, you will lose your money.
FBI Online Agent virus: “FBI Online Agent has blocked your computer for security reason” warning is a
ransomware that locked down your computer demanding for a Moneypak code of 200$ payment. It is also known as
FBI Online Agent V2.2 or other versions. What will happen, if you get warning message of FBI Online Agent Virus on
your computer? It is nothing but a malware, remove it immediately with the instructions or contact professionals if
you found this.
International Cyber Security Protection Alliance virus: Every message of International Cyber Security
Protection Alliance virus variants makes the same allegations to demand the fine be paid within 72 hours or further
legal actions will be taken. They all demand a fine, ranging from $100 to upwards of $300 to unlock the computer and
also drop all pending legal charges. Once this virus scam is installed on the computer there is only one way to
remove the block, and that is by deleting all of the files from the system that are linked to this attack. While the
message states that the block will be removed once the payment is verified this is not true at all, and the user will be
left in the same situation, minus the money they just handed over to the hackers.
FBI Paypal virus: Another FBI virus scam blocks computer and asks for pay a fine of $$$. What you received is the
police message on your computer saying “Computer virus has locked your PC”. If your computer has been locked by
an outside source for downloading and they want a payment to unlock it, what to do? When you get the FBI Paypal
virus notice pops up with the video webcam on your screen, you may also receive a message on the computer
stating “I need to pay 100.00 to unlock your computer via Greendot Moneypak, check out with Paypal”.
FBI MoneyGram virus: It utilizes the name of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Once it rips into user’s computer,
the pesky scareware blocks the whole screen and locks down your computer. What is more, it demands paying a
fine of $300 for illegal crime activities, such as watching child porno or violate the government law; it also demands
after the fine is in there bank, you have 72 hours to correct the violation. Different from former ransomware, FBI
MoneyGram virus uses Moneygram for its money transactions.
FBI Your Browser Has Been Locked virus: Will the FBI lock my browser on Mac machine? Is there a FBI cyber
virus that says your browser is blocked? Yes, FBI virus is now targeting Apple’s Mac OS X Users with a FBI browser
lock scam attack technique. Once the FBI locked browser message pops up, this FBI Moneypak virus will lock your
browser and PC screen, and then all your websites have been blocked. On the main screen, it says Your browser
has been locked. Does it mean that your browser is locked? It means the FBI.gov.id locking up the screen on Mac or
Apple computer. When your browser has been blocked, you may wonder: “The FBI blocked my Internet access and
says I have to pay money to get it removed. Is that legit? Is the FBI popping up warning messages that say your
browser is locked unless you pay a fine real?”. Of course, it is not from FBI, as we mentioned above, this is actually
a scam.
Mandiant USA Cyber Security (FBI Department of Defense USA Cyber Crime Center) virus: Mandiant USA
Cyber Security virus is one of the latest FBI computer security threats infecting thousands of PCs day by day. We
categorize this PC threat as ransomware because such type of malware always blocks PC user’s system or holds
your data for ransom, and scares the victims to pay the money. However, computer victims who has got this
ransomware infection never realize that it is a scam designed by the computer hijackers. Mandiant USA Cyber
Security virus will show PC users fake notification and claim they have been involved in legal problems. This scam
will try its best to convince people that their computer has been locked by FBI law enforcement agencies or Police
due to violation of copyright laws.
ICE Cyber Crime Center virus: ICE Cyber Crime Center virus is another FBI virus scam designed to block the PC
screen for cheating money from the PC users. This malware should be categorized as the police ransomware as it
scares PC users in the name of the government departments. Once this virus has been installed on the PC system,
people can do nothing unless they remove the ICE Cyber Crime Center virus completely. The virus will display a
warning message and state that the PC user has violated the local laws, privacy policy, spam and copyrighted
content. They claims that they will release the infected computer after receiving a fine from PC users.
FBI Virus Troj/Urausy Variant : The latest FBI virus scam is from the Troj/Urausy ransomware family. It attacks
victims with locked computer screen warning, claiming it is officially from FBI agency in the United States and asking
for ransom to get computer unlocked/unblocked. This scam technique used by this FBI virus is the same as the
scamware like the latest Live Security Professional and Attentive Antivirus. However, this Troj/Urausy FBI virus is
made more specifically targeted for various geo­locations. This virus variants also includes New Zealand E­Crime Lab
Ransomware virus for New Zealand geolocation, The Ministry of Public Safety Canada Ransomware virus for Canada
geo­location, The Australian Communications and Media Authority virus for Australian geolocation and The Serios
Organised Crime Agency Ransomware virus for United Kingdom geolocation. One extra feature of this FBI
Troj/Urausy virus is targeting victims that usually surf certain types of websites with adult contents or illegal
downloads. It typically employs social engineering tactics to scare and deceive victims into paying the fines by
popping up locked­screen police warning or even using live chat online to extort the ransom fine.
This FBI virus is a common Internet fine scam that targets US based computer users and displays a notification that
demands a payment of $300 within 48 hours for multiple violations, including pornographic content distribution,
SPAM emailing, and downloading and sharing of copyright files. If not paid within the 48 hours, they threaten that

20. popping up locked­screen police warning or even using live chat online to extort the ransom fine.
This FBI virus is a common Internet fine scam that targets US based computer users and displays a notification that
demands a payment of $300 within 48 hours for multiple violations, including pornographic content distribution,
SPAM emailing, and downloading and sharing of copyright files. If not paid within the 48 hours, they threaten that
there will be additional fines handed down as well as possible criminal charges and prosecution. This is done to
scare the user into paying the $300 quickly out of fear. It employs the same scam technique like the latest United
States Courts virus scam when the virus is installed on the computer, it will immediately change the settings to
disable all programs and to launch the warning message. This message is made to look like it is being sent by the
FBI, with official logos and seals along with personal information displayed that it pulls form the users computer,
including the IP address, location, and if there is a webcam installed it will turn it on and display the video feed within
the message. It claims that the FBI is watching and using the video evidence as a way to identify owner so that the
criminal prosecution can begin. This of course is only is the fine is not paid within the first 48 hours, or so they say.
There are no violations, no fines, and there certainly will not be any legal trouble.
This entire virus has been constructed by computer hackers to extort money from the user it infects by scaring them
into thinking that they will be in serious trouble if the fine is not paid. As the name of the FBI Moneypak virus implies,
they request that the $300 payment is made through Moneypak or MoneyGram, which is a way of sending cash to
another individual. Common sense should prevail here since the FBI is never going to just block a computer and
they are not going to ask that a fine be paid with a Moneypak! The user will not be able to remove the
message from the computer, as the screen will not close and all Internet browsers are blocked as well as
applications and menus on the PC. Any computer that is running Windows is a potential victim for the Moneypak
virus and careless web browsing and computer use can quickly block the computer, so it is important to understand
how this virus is spread. SPAM email marketing is one way that the hackers spread this attack, and they simply
include the virus files in an attachment and mass blast the message to millions of email addresses. This type of
email marketing is not legal, but these are cyber criminals and they are not concerned with following the law, as they
are essentially stealing money from all of the victims of the Moneypak virus scam. Another way that this ransomware
is spread is through popular shareware websites. The virus files will be packed together with popular music, videos,
and software downloads. When the user installs their download they will also be installing the FBI Moneypak virus
onto their computer. It will automatically install and next thing they know their computer is blocked and they are
shown the warning message.
Even though the message states that the block will be removed once the $100 or other amount of payment is verified
this is not correct. The only way to really move the block is either to remove all of the infected files or contact tech
professionals for help. You can use the instructions YooSecurity provides here to remove this virus scam. Once fully
removed the computer operation will return to how it was prior to the FBI Moneypak virus corrupting the system.
New FBI Cybercrimes Virus Scam Variants: The Locked PC Data Family
The FBI cybercrimes virus scam is one of the largest ransomware attacks in the United States, and the hackers
behind this malware target as many computer users as possible and attempt to extort money form them by using
fear and empty threats. Unfortunately they are very successful and scam thousands of users every week out of their
hard earned money by tricking them into believing that they have violated several laws. Before we go on, it is
important to mention that the FBI or any law enforcement agency will never ask for money be sent to them online.
Never send your personal information or financial information to anyone online, as it is generally a scam.
The first thing that the FBI virus scam does when it is installed is change the system settings and alert the directory
of the computer in order to block programs and files from being opened and accessed once it is launched. The
message that is displayed locks the screen and it will not close or minimize, leaving the computer user to focus all
of his or her attention to the message screen. If they attempt to access their Windows start menu or an Internet
browser they quickly learn that their entire system has been blocked by the virus. Even savvy computer users that
think they can get around the block by manually shutting off the computer and restarting it will soon realize that there
is no escaping the block, even in safe mode.
The computer owner is accused of copyright violations, in additional to email spamming and the involvement in
pornography content distribution. The screen that displays the information is high quality and displays the FBI logo
and goes as far as to access the computers IP address and location, displaying that on the screen as well. The FBI
cybercrimes virus scam insists that there are pending criminal charges that will be filed as soon as the time limit to
pay the fine expires, and warns that if it is ignored that the charges will be filed. Many victims simply pay the money
out of fear as they assume that they did do something wrong and they do not want to risk any trouble with the law.
There are also a large percentage of users that believe that they are indeed guilty because of their participation on file
sharing websites and torrent sites. Even though they know it is wrong, many computer users download music,
movies and software that is pirated and violating copyright law. It seems like there is an increase in the amount of
websites that promote this activity, and because of the large percentage that download stolen files online, the
hackers are able to convert those people into victims. They would rather pay a small fine rather than to risk pending
legal troubles.
The lock screen also explains how to make the payment, which needs to be done using a Greendot MoneyPak card.
This is a prepaid form of payment used to instantly transfer funds electronically. There is a list of popular retail stores
that sell these loadable cards and the hackers allow the user to submit their transaction code through the lock
screen. As soon as that code is sent the money is lost forever. There is no protection offered to the sender and that
is the reason why this is the method of payment they accept. This should be a red flag because no legitimate source
is going to request a payment is made using this method.
In order to remove the block and lock screen all of the virus files need to be deleted from the system. They tend to
install deep within the system so a manual removal process is suggested. There are complete instructions below
that explain how to do this. Following them will remove the FBI cybercrimes virus scam from the infected computer
and return it to normal operation.

The Everything On Your Computer Has Been Fully Encrypted FBI Virus

that attempts to trick the user into thinking that the message is from the FBI or United States Department of Justice
and that a fine of $100 must be paid immediately or there will be additional fines as well as legal action initiated and
criminal charges filed. The message is displayed on the computer and it locks all other functions. The user is not
able to open and files or applications, and can’t even gain access to the Internet. The details of the message are
displayed below, but remember if laws were broken they would not simply lock the computer and demand that
money is sent online. There would be official charges and arrests made. Here is what the message of the everything
on your computer has been fully encrypted ransomware virus:
The everything on your computer has been fully encrypted ransomware is spread through dive by downloads
on infected websites, through visiting malicious websites, and also by email spam. When visitors land on websites
that have been infected thee virus can be instantly spread onto their machines. There are also sites that have been
set up that contain the virus and users are directed to those sites from links within email messages that are sent out
by the million. Some of the emails will not contain the link, but they will instead have an attachment that they will be
asked to click on. They use all kinds of tricks to get the users to open the attachments. They will claim that it is an
embarrassing photo or some information found online.
While the message says that the computer lock will be released once the $100 payment is confirmed to the FBI that
is not the case and it will remain locked indefinitely. The only way to removed this FBI virus from the everything on
your computer has been fully encrypted ransomware is to delete all of the files that it installed. Complete details on
how to delete all of the virus files from the computer are listed below. Following these steps above or the video guide
below will remove the everything on your computer has been fully encrypted ransomware files and free the computer
from the block, and free your computer from this FBI virus scam.
FBI Your Computer Has Been Blocked Virus
The “Your computer has been blocked” virus is a FBI locked screen virus scam that has several versions that
adapt to the IP address of the computer that it has infected and displays a message stating that the local law
enforcement agency has locked the computer for being involved in email spam, copyright violations, and even child
pornography distribution. When the user tries to close out the window they will notice that it is locked and they are
not able to access any other web browsers or any programs installed on the computer. When the virus is first
installed it changes the system settings and blocks everything from being accessed. Some users will attempt to
manually shut the computer down since the start menu is not functional. When they power the PC back on the lock
screen is immediately displayed again, even when opened in safe mode. There is no escaping the “Your computer
has been blocked” virus.
It is a Geo targeted virus, with several different versions that alter the message depending on where the user is
located. For example, if the user is in the United States the message will state that it is coming directly from the FBI
and the fine amount will be listed in US dollars. Depending on the version of the virus, it will ask for anywhere from
$100 to $300 be paid through an instant electronic money transfer. The most common forms of payment are
Greendot MoneyPak, Paysafecard, and Ukash. The message will also let the user know where they can purchase
these loadable cards in their local area.
The message states that if the fine is paid within the specified period of time, which is typically between 24 and 72
hours, that all pending legal charges and additional fines will be dropped. To make the message more believable, the
“Your computer has been blocked” virus also displays the users IP address and location on the screen. It also
accesses the web cam and displays the feed in the message and displays a message that says they are being
recorded in order to properly identify them when it comes time to press the legal charges. This really scares a lot of
the victims into sending the money because they fear what will happen if they ignore it.

accesses the web cam and displays the feed in the message and displays a message that says they are being
recorded in order to properly identify them when it comes time to press the legal charges. This really scares a lot of
the victims into sending the money because they fear what will happen if they ignore it.
First, no law enforcement agency will ever lock a computer and demand that money is sent through the Internet. If
they have an issue with someone they will contact them directly and not through a message sent online. The “Your
computer has been blocked” virus is spread by infecting websites with it that will drop the virus onto the computer of
all visitors, and they also spread it through file sharing websites that automatically install the attack when the user
downloads other freeware programs. Email spamming is also used, and the hackers will include the virus as an
attachment and trick the user into opening the attachment, forcing the installation of the “Your computer has been
blocked” virus onto the computer.
The user is told that the block will be removed if they pay the fine and it is confirmed. Those that fall for this FBI
scam will soon find out that the block will not be removed and they have indeed been scammed. The only way to
remove it and gain access to the computer is to delete all of the virus files. Since this virus installs itself deep within
the root directory a manual removal is suggested. The instructions below show the steps needed to take in order to

virus completely.
Your Browser Has Been Locked FBI Virus
The Your Browser Has Been Locked FBI virus is malware we refer to as Trojan Reventon, and it is an attack that
attempts to extort money from its victims by claiming that they have violated several cyber laws and now the FBI has
locked the computer. The violations include violating copyright laws, distribution of child pornography, distributing
files that contained viruses, and promoting terrorism. The message states that $300 must be paid right away or the
charges will be filed. If the $300 is paid right away then the message says the charges will be dropped and the block
on the computer will be lifted.
As you can see, the Your Browser Has Been Locked FBI virus really drives fear into the user and when you look at
all of the pending charges, $300 seems like a very small price to pay in order to avoid all of that trouble. It works well,
and many users will pay the money right away only to learn that their computer block is not removed even after
paying. The only form of payment that is accepted is a Greendot MoneyPak, and it provides the sender no protection
or way to dispute the transaction once they have been scammed.
The look and feel of the message screen looks very authentic and that also helps to trick the users into sending the
money. The Your Browser Has Been Locked FBI virus also has the ability to access the web cam and display the
feed in the message, and it then alerts the user that they are being recorded in order to further identify them. Many
victims get so scared that they send the $300 out of fear.
There are many ways that this FBI ransomware virus is spread across computers but the most popular and effective
method is through email spamming. The hackers design emails that appear to come from major shipping companies
and they state that they made an attempt to make a delivery but there was nobody home. The message then
instructs them to open the attachment to see the details of the shipment. Once this is opened the virus is installed
onto the computer without their knowledge. Curiosity gets the best of many people, and this is a way that they infect
thousands of computers daily.
The lock will not be removed unless all of the files are deleted, so follow the instructions below to manually delete all
of the Your Browser Has Been Locked FBI virus files that have been installed on the system. Once they are all gone
the FBI virus lock will be removed and all programs will be functional again.
FBI White Screen virus

23. White Screen FBI Virus Screenshot
The FBI White Screen virus is another FBI virus that locks the screen and the user sees a white screen when they
attempt to log into their computer. This is a FBI Moneypak virus that only attacks computers that run Windows. This
harmful piece of malware is referred to as a Trojan Reventon and what the users sees on their end will depend on
their IP address. There are several versions of the FBI lock screen that will be displayed based on the IP address,
and they will all demand that a payment via Moneypak is made for violating several laws and possessing illegally
obtained files on the computer. These pages are all catered to the local area with the correct law enforcement
agency like FBI and language on them. In the even that the FBI White Screen virus cannot detect the computers IP
address it will just display a white screen.
There are several ways that the hackers behind this group spread the FBI virus. They use email spamming,
malicious websites, and legitimate websites that have been compromised and set up to drop this Trojan onto the
computer when the site is visited. If they use email spamming to distribute the virus then they will create an
attachment that contains the FBI White Screen virus and as soon as it is opened the virus will be installed onto the
computer. There will be a very short and to the point email that is written in a way that convinces the user to open
the attachment. They will usually state that there is a picture of them that was found online or a story about them
that they need to check. Not all of the emails will contain an attachment, and some might just contain a link to a
malicious website. The link will often be disguised to be something else. A simple message and a “click here” that is
linked to the malicious website infects so many computers every day because the users are not cautious about what
they download and click on.
Those malicious sites that the email directs the users to is infected with the FBI White Screen virus does something
called a “drive by download” and when users visit these infected websites they get slipped the virus and it begins to
install without them even knowing. They also will package the FBI White Screen virus download alongside other
popular free downloads and spread them throughout the Internet across several different popular file sharing sites.
They will typically target high volume free downloads and when the user installs them on the computer it will also
install the FBI White Screen virus. The most popular free downloads that they target are file converting programs,
PDF converters, and audio converters. These are programs that millions of computer users search for and download
daily. It results in the spread of this attack across a large number of computers.
Once the FBI White Screen moneypak virus is installed on the computer is will begin to alter the system settings
and make changes to block all access to all files and programs and then display the lock screen. The notification
screen pretends to be from FBI or the local law enforcement agency depending on the IP address of the computer. It
then alerts the user that their computer has been blocked because it has been linked to the distribution of
pornographic content, email spamming, and downloading of copyright files. The message asks to a payment to be
sent for these violations, and each version has a different time frame that it demands the payment be made within. It
then states that if the payment is failed to be made then there will be additional charges as well as criminal charges
filed. The FBI White Screen virus blocks access to all of the computer functions and will not allow another web
browser to open or any programs to be accessed. The start bar will not allow access either, so it is impossible to
restart or shut down the computer properly.
Many computer users will shut down the PC manually and then attempt to start it in safe mode. The FBI White
Screen virus has settings in place that immediately lock the computer and display the warning message even when
started in safe mode. These warning screens all display the IP address and the location of the user to make it
appear authentic. To further scare the user, the virus can hijack the webcam on the computer and display a live feed.
If this is done they will announce that the video is being watched in order to properly identify the user in the event that
the fine is not paid and criminal charges are filed. The also say that they are accessing the pictures saved on the
computer for identification purpose also, but this is not true at all.
The FBI White Screen virus is one of the largest families of ransomware attacks, with so many different versions. The

the virus files. Since this virus has a tendency to dig deep within the root directory it is suggested that a manual

FBI Virus Scam Computer Locked
The FBI virus scam computer locked attack is something that computer hackers have developed in order to extort
money from the computer user by tricking them into thinking that their computer has been locked by the FBI for
several violations. This is a very tricky malware, and it will typically get installed undetected with assistance from the
Trojan lock screen. Once this virus makes its way into the computer it begins to install and also make some
alterations to the computer system, locking the computer and preventing the user from opening any programs or
accessing any applications. There are several versions of the FBI virus scam computer locked attack, and each one
demands a different amount of money ranging from $100 to $300 in order to settle the pending legal troubles.
Each version of this computer virus will lock the users computer and present them with a lock screen message that
lists off several violations that have been linked back to the IP address of the infected computer. To make this appear
more authentic the message screens all have the official FBI logo and the graphics make it appear to come directly
from the law enforcement agency. All of the versions of this message display the users IP address, location, Internet
service provider (ISP), and operating system within the message. This is all data that the program easily obtains, but
those computer users that are not aware of this will think that they do indeed have all of their information and this
helps to convince them that this is a real serious matter that needs to be addresses immediately.
The FBI virus scam computer locked attack claims that the users computer has been involved in email spamming,
the distribution of pornographic material, and the use and distribution of copyright material such as music files, movie
files, and unlicensed computer programs. The message then warns about the possibility of additional fines as well as
criminal charges that will be filed if the computer user fails to pay the fine within the allocated time frame. The fine
ranges from $100 to $300 depending on the version of the FBI virus that the computer has picked up. The time to
make the payment ranges from 24 hours up to 72 hours, and the only form of payment that is accepted is pre paid
money transfers through Greendot MoneyPak. This method offer no protection for the consumer and when they
realize that they have been scammed there is no way to dispute the payment or file a charge back like could be
done with a credit card. It also allows the hackers to stay anonymous while stealing money form their victims.
There are many ways that the FBI virus scam computer locked attack is spread, but the two main methods that the
hackers use are email spamming and utilizing the high traffic and popularity of file sharing websites, along with the
habits of the people that visit those websites. Many computer users are not careful when surfing the Internet and
checking their email, so the hackers are able to infect a large number of computers with the virus every single day.
This is one of the largest ransomware attacks in the United States, with several different versions as well as new
ones being introduced all the time to avoid people seeing the same one over and over.
When the hackers send spam emails in order to spread the FBI virus scam computer locked attack they will include
it within an attachment that is set to install the virus as soon as it is opened. The body of the email message will
tend to be very simple and encourage the recipient to open the attachment. They will state that they found an
embarrassing picture or something written online about them. Curiosity will tend to get the best of people and they
will open the attachment and the virus will begin to install on their PC without their knowledge. This is a perfect
example of why there are so many warnings that advise against opening emails and especially attachments from
senders that you do not know. It will usually not end well for those that ignore those warnings.
The other popular way that the FBI virus scam computer locked attack is spread is through file sharing websites
and torrent websites. The hackers include the virus in popular downloads, ranging from music, movies, and even
computer software. The people that visit these sites and download these files are doing so illegally, as it is all pirated
copies of the files. Those that are infected this way will tend to take the virus message a bit more serious as they are
well aware that they are guilty of one of the claims made against them. They will then quickly pay the amount
requested because they want to avoid the additional fines and legal action since they know they are guilty. Some of
the most common versions of the FBI virus scam computer locked attack are listed above like FBI Department of
Defense Virus, FBI MoneyPak, FBI PayPal Virus, FBI Greendot MoneyPak Virus, FBI Cybercrime Division Virus,
FBI Online Agent Virus and FBI Black Screen Virus.
Every version of the FBI virus scam computer locked message claims that the block will be removed once the
payment is confirmed, stating that it can take up to 72 hours from the time the payment is sent to complete the
verification and unlock the computer. This is not the case, and even those that pay the fine will remain locked out of
their computer.
The only way to remove the block is to fully delete all of the virus files that have been installed on the computer.
Since the virus installs its files deep within the root directory we suggest that a manual removal approach is taken.

FBI Cybercrime Division Virus
The FBI cybercrime division virus is a new FBI virus variant and it is a ransomware attack also referred to as
the ICSPA attack (International Cyber Security Protection Alliance). The common feature of this computer virus
is the bold message that is displayed on the screen that states, “ATTENTION! Your computer has been locked and
all data is encrypted!” This malware is a well known Trojan Reveton and the goal of this virus is to trick the users into
thinking that thy must quickly pay a fine before they face serious legal trouble.
Once this is installed onto the computer, the FBI cybercrime division virus displays a notification that appears to
come directly from the FBI’s cyber crime division, but in reality it is a fake message that has been developed by
computer hackers that try to fool the users into thinking that it is real. They use the correct colors, logos, and
contact information for the law enforcement agencies in order to make it look as authentic as possible. The message
warns the computer user that their PC has been blocked due to it being linked to the distribution of pornography
involving minors, email spamming, and also the distribution of copyright files and the use of software that is not
properly licensed.
This computer virus changes the system settings once it is installed and blocks all programs and files from being
accessed. When the computer is turned on everything is blocked and the warning message is displayed. This is a
“block” and there is no way to close down the message or access anything on the computer. It stays in view and
there is nothing that can be done to make it disappear. Some users will manually power down their computer in an
attempt to make the FBI cybercrime division virus disappear but they will soon discover that it will reappear as soon
as they restart the computer. There is no escaping it, so it is then taken more seriously.
There are many different versions of the virus, but they all demand that a payment of $200­$300 is made in order to
satisfy the charges that are pending. The message lists off all of the violations and then also mentions what the
monetary fine as well as criminal charges linked to each offence are. They do this in order to scare the computer
users into thinking they should pay the fine fast before they are charged further.
While most computer viruses are spread so the hackers can gain remote access to the computer and steal valuable
financial as well as personal information, the FBI cybercrime division virus is simply a ransomware attack that they
place on as many computers as possible. It is a numbers game really, as the more computers that they can infect,
the more people they will end up tricking into paying the fine. They only focus on spreading the virus, because once
it is installed on the computer it stays there and keeps the computer locked. Although it says that the lock will be
removed once the payment is verified, that is not true. So, the only way to fix the situation is to delete the virus from
the computer. The user will either realize this is a scam and look for ways to remove it, or they will fall for this and
end up paying the fine only to learn several days later that the block was not removed from the computer and it was a
big scam demanding $200 or $300 fines to unlock your computer.
The payment is only accepted from either a Paysafecard, Ukash, or Greendot MoneyPak. These are all
forms of prepaid cards that enable the card holder to send money electronically without the use of a debit or credit
card. It is the same as sending cash. The hackers accept this method because it protects them from having charges
disputed or challenged after the payment is made. Since it is the same as sending cash the consumer has no
protection. It also helps the hackers stay untraced, as they want to remain under the radar at all times and not give
up their identity to any official law enforcement.
While the people behind the FBI cybercrime division virus are constantly updating the look of the warning screen in
order to trick new computer users, it is important to remember that no law enforcement agency will ever just block
your computer and demand that you dens money, especially not over the computer in the form of a prepaid card.

This is a major red flag that something is wrong. Never send money through the computer and if you ever have a
question regarding a message that appears to come from the police then simply contact your local police station and
let them know the details. They can then confirms that it is a scam and you can then seek ways to have the virus
