Whatever the case may be, it is evident that Windows Detected Alureon Virus Pop-up does not come with a dedicated application.

This fake alert is featured on streetsecurity{.}xyz/united_kingdom_2/?utm_source=_ and http://townsecurity{.}xyz/united_kingdom_3/, but both of them are featured on the same server.

Make no mistake, 0800-090-3285 is a fake tech support number that will not help you with anything. Our research has revealed that the people that answer the phones and provide you with “tech support” have been instructed to try to sell you useless software such as Reimage, PC Clean Maestro, SpeedingUpMyPC, TotalSystemCare, and probably some other shady applications that fall into the category of potentially unwanted programs.
