How did I get infected with?

PUPs don’t appear out of thin air. It may seem that way to you, but it’s not the case. In actuality, you agree to install them. Oh, yes! The program asks if you agree to allow it into your system. And, only continues with installment, if you do. No permission, no admission. Since it can’t risk getting rejected, it gets pretty crafty with its inquiries. The tool doesn’t outright appear to seek consent. That leaves too much room for denial. Instead of the straightforward approach, it goes the opposite direction. The PUP asks for your approval in the sneakiest way possible. It hides behind freeware. Uses corrupted links, or pages to conceal itself. Even, spam email attachments offer a way in. The PUP can also pretend to be a fake program or system update. All these methods share a common necessity. Dis you manage to spot it? Neither method can succeed without your carelessness. It’s essential for its sneaky invasion. The tool needs you to throw caution to the wind, and rush. To agree to everything in blind faith, and not bother doing due diligence. Don’t oblige! When you open your PC to tools, updates, anything, be wary. Read the terms and conditions, know what you say YES to. Even a little extra attention goes a long way. Choose caution over carelessness.

Why are these ads dangerous?

The Warning pop-up appears for a reason. And, that reason is to sell you a lie. The people, who crafted the alert want you to find it believable. So, they use flashy colors, and big bold letters that scream ‘Trouble!’ The Warning pop-up gets displayed on your screen to inform you that you’re in danger. The alert claims that your system harbors countless infections. And, unless you act to remove them at once, you’ll face worse issues. The alert makes sure to sound as genuine as possible. It points out your malware problem, and then offers you assistance. That’s right! The PUP states you have an issue, then provides you with a solution to said issue. That seems a bit suspicious, wouldn’t you agree? The alert contains a ‘toll-free number.’ And, urges you to call it. By calling, you contact tech specialists, who can help you resolve your situation. Whatever you do, do NOT reach out to these people! They’re scammers! Don’t call, write, or send a pigeon. They offer no help, but they do ask you for money. As mentioned, that’s their end-game. They want to swindle you out of your money. Don’t let them succeed. Protect yourself, and don’t buy their deception. Don’t fall for their web of lies. Do what’s best for you, and your system’s well-being, and remain level-headed. Upon getting stuck with the Warning pop-up, accept that it’s a lie. A means to an end. Acknowledge that it got crafted by malicious strangers with agendas. And, act in your best interest. Ignore its warnings of your PC, brimming with infections. For, in reality, the only infection, that should concern you, is the PUP, forcing the alerts on you. Find, and remove it the first chance you get.
