For instance, the same false accusations are presented by such ransomware viruses as Polizei virus, GVU virus, Magyar Rendorseg virus and many others, some of which are known to have and audio message explain why the computer is locked.

In addition to the simulated statements, the user is asked to pay a particular sum of money.

Instead of wasting your money you should remove Malta Police Force virus from the system as the message displayed on your screen has nothing to do with the actual law enforcement agency.
