While on the net all of a sudden my laptop was hi-jacked.
It also was recording me and telling me it was. Good thing I had red tape over the lens . You could see the window of it actually watching me.
I’m very careful where I surf and only visit a handful of web forums
and Amazon and youtube.
The name of it is called… ICE The ice cyber crime center. It says your computer has been suspended on the grounds of the violation of the law of the United States of America.
Plus a whole bunch of other crap and mentions prison time and porn. It also tells you how to pay the $400 .
The whole screen said bunch of crazy s**t and wants $400 in 48hrs otherwise they are reporting me WTF ? Also had my IP and where I live…WTF ?
I ran avast and it found 3 high risk items and was put in the chest.
So to be safe I ran a boot scan . Then the same virus popped up.(See pics below). I couldn’t get out of it.
I noticed if I tapped the power button quickly without holding power button down and then hit cancel real fast before it shut down it was gone (viruse screen pop up) and was able to access desktop and now able to access web.
So I ran another scan (full) and it said no virus was found other than
tons of adobe crap and some other stuff that says password protected as always with all my scans.
I know the virus it’s still in my system because avast doesn’t even start up anymore upon booting up.
The last time it popped up I took pictures of my screen. Had to take several so to show the entire page without it being blurry.
I also ran Mal and adware and nothing showed up.
I’m running a full scan as I type this but I’m freaking out that it has even taken over my video and was watching me. It couldn’t see me because I had the lens covered for over a year but when i put my hand over the lens you could see the video window (on their page) go dark red (tape is red that’s covering lens) and when i pulled away my hand it got lighter.
Please help and thanks so very much for helping us people out when
a virus hi-jacks our systems.
Thanks
