Paysafecard Virus Removal Guide

Enemy with many faces is the most annoying kind of all and Paysafecard Virus must be one of them. Paysafecard Virus is a generic name of one particular ransomware application that has been all the rage as of late. It is also known by many other names, including FBI Moneypak Virus, Police Central e-crime Unit (PCEU)  and the like. The main idea behind this infection is that its creators try to grow rich by deceiving innocent computer users.

The plot is simple - Paysafecard Virus convinces the user that he has committed a crime and thus he has to pay a fine in order to unlock his computer. At the first glance Paysafecard Virus might seem really scary, because it does not allow the user to access his desktop. The only thing the user sees is his big application window that requires money. Depending on which version of Paysafecard Virus you are infected with, the program might ask for 100 USD, 100 Canadian dollars, 50 pounds or 50 Euro. The amount and currency differs, because upon the infection Paysafecard Virus reads your IP address and then adjust itself to your location. So this infection is actually multilingual as English-speaking users aren't its only target.

Here's an example of a message you might see on your screen if you are infected with Paysafecard Virus:
