What is Green dot Moneypak Virus?
People who create Green dot Moneypak Virus earn thousands of dollars every single day. The whole Ukash Virus scam seems to be a lucrative business, because new versions of ransomware programs appear every single day. Even though it should be clear to every single user that police authorities do not have a jurisdiction that would allow them to lock his computer, a lot of people still fall for this trap and spend their money for nothing.
Actually, the message from Green dot Moneypak Virus might seem really scary:
Your computer has been locked!
Illegally downloaded materials (MP3’s, Movies or Software) have been located on your computer.By downloading, those were reproduced, thereby involving a criminal offense under Section 106 of the Copyright Act.
The downloading of copyrighted material via the Internet or music-sharing networks is illegal and is in accordance with Section 106 of the Copyright Act subject to a fine of imprisonment for a penalty of up to 3 years.
Furthermore, possession of illegally downloaded material is punishable under Section 184 paragraph 3 of the Criminal Code and may also lead to the confiscation of the computer, with which the files were downloaded. To unlock your computer and to avoid other legal consequences, you are obligated to pay a release fee of $200.
There is no need to say that a lot of users still download music illegally, so when they see this kind of message plastered all over their screen, it is only natural to panic. However, Green dot Moneypak Virus has nothing in common with the FBI or the law enforcement authorities. It only wants you to pay the $200 "fine" so that they could rip easy financial gain. Also, even if you do pay the ransom it doesn't mean that Green dot Moneypak Virus will unlock your computer.
