The clandestine České Republik Police Virus is targeted at Windows users who live in Czech Republic. Just like many of the recently detected ransomware, it follows the orders of the Flimrans Trojan. Such infections as Polizei Cybercrime Investigation Department, Latvijas Valsts Policija Virus and Tietoverkkorikosten Tutkinnan Yksikkö Virus are all controlled through the same infection; however, they are targeted at different countries. This allows the cyber criminals behind the scam to attack more specifically and successfully. If the devious ransomware has already corrupted your operating system, you already know that it uses the name of Czech Police to pass the fictitious screen-locking notification as the real deal. Of course, the Police have no links to this schemers’ attack and you should delete České Republik Police Virus without paying much attention to the bogus alert. Read more »
