The Palestinian Civil Police Force Virus is directly related to Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan Virus, Abu Dhabi Police GHQ Virus and other similar infection that infect users in the Middle East. The ransomware program is distributed by Urausy Trojan and it is a part of the huge Ukash Virus group. However, unlike other Ukash viruses, The Palestinian Civil Police Force Virus does not require you to transfer your money via Ukash of MoneyPak. Since the infection targets users in Palestine, it uses CashU to collect the ransom payments. CashU is a prepaid online payment method that is available in North Africa and the Middle East.
