The Securitytel.xyz pop-ups only mean one thing – your computer is no longer infection-free. As you could imagine, cyber parasites are very sneaky and very secretive. And yes, one of them managed to get to you. The reason why you’re now bombarded with pop-ups is because your PC has been infected with adware or a PUP (potentially unwanted program). Could you possibly keep on browsing the Web knowing that a parasite is lurking somewhere on your device? Securitytel.xyz is nothing but a questionable website used by hackers to bring the pop-ups to you. However, the virus itself has already been installed and is now on board wreaking havoc in silence. That means you absolutely have to take care of your machine before the parasite gets out of hand. Since the moment your machine got compromised till the minute you delete this malicious pest, it tirelessly throws issues your way. First of all, the virus adds a browser extension without your permission or authorization. Now  that all your browsers are compromised, prepare yourself for annoyance. The never-ending pile of Securitytel.xyz pop-ups includes fake security warnings, fake alerts, fake messages and fake tech support services. You get the picture, don’t you? This parasite is attempting to scare you into believing that your computer is infected. Well, technically, your machine really is infected. You cyber problem has nothing to do with the non-existent fictional parasites these pop-ups warn you about, though. Once the virus makes you believe its lies, it asks you to call a suspicious phone number in order the fix the numerous “issues” you have on board. Remember, this is a scam. The only reason why you’re supposed to dial this number is so hackers could sell you some bogus anti-virus software. There is no virus on your computer system apart from the adware/PUP we already mentioned. This particular infection is causing the pop-ups and this particular infection you have to tackle. And you better do so quickly. It’s quite obvious that this entire scheme is aiming directly at your bank account so don’t waste time. Due to the parasite’s malicious presence you will be constantly seeing pesky warnings and alerts on every single website you visit. There’s one way to get rid of these tricky pop-ups and, as you could imagine, it involves deleting the parasite. In addition, the PC speed will be slowed down significantly and your overwhelmed browsers might start crashing/freezing. As if that wasn’t enough, you have to keep in mind that the virus also steals browsing-related information. Anything from IP addresses, browsing history and search queries to passwords, usernames and email addresses gets monitored and sent straight into the hands of hackers. They will sell your personal data without thinking twice about it. It goes without saying that your privacy ends up seriously jeopardized; the question is, are you going to allow this? To prevent further damage, delete the parasite.

How did I get infected with?

You might have clicked open a corrupted spam email-attachment or some spam message from a known/unknown sender. Another possibility is that you downloaded some bundled programs off of the Internet and you didn’t pay much attention to the installation process. Even though protecting your machine from malware is quite an easy thing to do, many PC users rush the installation. Remember, rushing leaves your computer vulnerable. You might accidentally install a whole bunch of infections alongside the safe programs you were originally going for because bundled software/freeware is currently the most popular infiltration method online. In order to prevent virus installation, always opt for the Custom or Advanced option in the Setup Wizard. Yes, this will take you more time than simply clicking the “I accept” button but don’t you think you should be aware what you accept? Uninstalling some nasty parasite would definitely be much more time-consuming and nerve-wracking as well. Therefore, take care of your machine instead of exposing it to various virtual infections.

Why are these ads dangerous?

As we mentioned already, the Securitytel.xyz pop-ups are trying to deceive you. Those malicious warnings were never really meant to be beneficial for you. And, trust us, the “assistance” they advertise is very dangerous. This is yet another attempt for an aggravating online fraud. If you come across some misleading message claiming that “System may have found malicious program running”, simply ignore it. You don’t want to participate in hackers’ phishing trickery, do you? Then get rid of the virus. This parasite’s developers are trying to lure you into buying their bogus software, thus, ultimately gaining profit at your expense. Don’t let crooks steal your money. Instead, remove the adware/PUP. Also, now that your computer is compromised, the PC speed will be slowed to a crawl so even browsing the Web in general becomes a hassle. In addition, your privacy is in danger as well. Hackers usually sell the private data they collect to third parties for marketing purposes but there’s no guarantee where and why your sensitive information might get sent. To delete this nuisance manually, please follow the detailed removal guide that you will find down below.
