Europol Virus

Europol Virus is a highly dangerous and misleading computer threat which may have been installed onto your personal computer by a number of clandestine Trojans, such as Ipeur, Uremtoo or Urausy. As you may already know, the infection is targeted at Windows users who currently reside in Europe, since the legal privileges of Europol are active within this region. Note that schemers control a number of other malicious ransomware versions which are targeted at computer users all over the world. In fact, even this particular virus has a number of different versions, all of which are linked through the falsely attached credentials. Since the scam is presented through a screen-locking notification, there is no doubt that the success depends of the information presented within it. Since schemers are willing to do whatever it takes to trick you into giving up your money, it is important that you pay no attention the bogus alerts and remove Europol Virus right away. Here are a few different excerpts:

All Activities of this computer has been recorded. All your files are encrypted.
You have been subjected to violation of Copyright and Related Rights Law

Your computer has been trying to download and/or install pirated software or multimedia files protected by international laws and has been blocked. According to EU legislation you are required to pay 100 EUR administrative fees

To unlock your computer and to avoid other legal consequences, you are obliged to pay a release fee of £100.

Right below the bogus accusations you are presented with intimidating statements about what could allegedly happen if you did not pay the requested fine in a certain amount of time. Whether you are threatened with jail time or even bigger fines, you do not need to pay the bogus fine because it will not help you unlock the personal computer. To restore all of the administrative privileges you need to delete Europol Virus, and this is the only way to prevent further malicious actions. If you are not convinced – contact Europol, and take a look at such recent infections as Decrypt Protect Virus or The State of Qatar Ministry of Interior CashU Virus. You should also check the infamous EC3 Europol Virus which acts just like the malicious ransomware in discussion. Of course, all of these threats require removal.
