How did I get infected with?

The PUP, behind the Windows Malware Detected pop-up, is sly. It’s masterful in the art of infiltration. In fact, it not only manages to invade your PC. But does it undetected. Yes, you have no idea that it’s lurking in the shadows. Not until its bombardment of alerts begins. That’s when you realize what you had done. Because, it was you, who did it. You were the one, who approved the infection’s installment. You may not recall doing it, but it doesn’t change the fact that you did. The thing is, no PUP can access a system without user’s consent. It has to ask if you agree to allow it in. And, only if you do, can it continue with the process. So, remember it or not, you gave it the green light. Don’t be too hard on yourself, though. Scamware tools are tricky. They don’t outright pop up to seek consent. If they did, you can reject them with ease. To avoid that, they resort to trickery. They use the old but gold means of infiltration. Fake updates, freeware, corrupted links, spam emails. Their methods are rather prolific. But, they all rely on your carelessness. The infection needs you to throw caution to the wind, and rush. To skip doing your due diligence, and give into naivety. Do NOT oblige! Do NOT make its invasion easier! Choose caution over carelessness. It helps you keep an infection-free PC. Carelessness invites them in. Make the right decision to ensure your system’s well-being.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Here’s how the scam goes. After the PUP invades your PC, it begins its bombardment. You begin getting your screen flooded with the Windows Malware Detected alert. All day, every day, you see warnings, trying to convince you that you’re in danger. If you buy the lie, the scamware is selling, you’re in tremendous trouble. The infection displays these warnings, and offers assistance. It claims that it has the solutions to your problems. It’s quite conceded considering it invented all these supposed problems. But, nonetheless, it claims that you can trust it to help! If it manages to gain your trust, it presents you these ‘solutions.’ The tool explains that, you’re currently benefiting from its free version. That’s the one that can point out issues, but not fix them. So, if you wish to deal with them for good, you have to buy its full version. That’s right. It asks you to pay money for its worthless, trouble-making full version. Not only will you lose money. But you’ll open your PC to a cyber threat that will cause further grievances. And, by making the payment, you also provide your personal and financial details. Thus, giving these cyber criminals access to that, too. That’s their end goal. These nasty unknown individuals want access to your private information. Don’t oblige! Do your best to protect yourself from the PUP’s clutches. Look past its deceit. Don’t fall for its lies. Buy nothing. Give NO private information. Discard the fear-mongering messages. Acknowledge the scamware tool, lurking somewhere on your PC. Find its exact hiding place, and delete it. ASAP.
