Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus

If you live in Switzerland, you should be aware of Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus, because this ransomware infection will try to con you out of 150 Swiss francs. The threat locks the system down and generates a fraudulent full-screen message whose sender seems to be the Swiss Federal Department of Justice and Police which is not true.

You are expected to pay the fine imposed on you because you have supposedly violated some laws. The Federal Department of Justice and Police is not related with the spread of this message, so you should not think that you are actually accused of viewing pornographic content or sending message related to terrorism:

Auf Ihrem Computer wurden ebenfalls Videodateien mit pornographischen Inhalten, Elementen von Gewalt und Kinderpornografie festgekeilt! Es wurden auch Emails in Form von Spam, mit terroristischen Hintergrunden, verschickt. Diese Sperre des Computers dient dazu, Aktivitaten zu unterbinden.

Um die Sperre des Computers aufzuheben, sind Sie dazu verdichtet eine Strafe von CHF 150 zu zahlen.

This bogus message should be removed from the system; hence you have to remove Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus which is easy to do if you use SpyHunter. This malware removal tool has already helped people around the world to remove such Ukash viruses as Guardia Di Finanza virus, Internet Crime Complaint Center Virus and many others.

The electronic payment service Paysafecard which is presented in the message should not be the proof that you should treat the notification as legitimate. Ukash or Paysafecard service may appear in any version of the Ukash virus, so there is no need to delay the removal.
