Do you know what Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica virus is?
Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica virus is a sly ransomware infection that locks your computer screen, pretending to be a law enforcement unit. Please see an excerpt of the ransom message the infection displays:
¡ATENCIÓN! Su ordenador personal ha sido bloqueado por rezones de seguridad vistos los motives abajo detallados.
El monto de su multa es de USD $100 (Dólares EE.UU.).
La multa puede ser pagada con Ukash vouchers.
You should under no circumstances believe that this is a real warning from Ministerio del Interior de Uruguay, Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica. A real authority unit would never ask you to pay a fine via a message on your computer screen, not to mention via payment systems like Ukash and PaySafeCard, so you should remove Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica.
This particular infection affects users in Uruguay. However, there are countless clones for other countries: BK LPD Virus, Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police Virus, Unite Speciale de la Police (USP) Virus and many, many others. Some of the emblems the criminals use to prove that they are an actual law enforcement unit are those of Internet Police and Cyber Crime Unit. However, that does not change the fact that this is an infection.
This ransomware could have gotten into your computer using several different techniques. It travels with Urausy Trojan infections, spam e-mail attachments, dangerous websites. And when it gets in, it shows its presence immediately, locking your screen and displaying the ransom message.
Said message will accuse you of various crimes. The supposed crimes are possession and/or distribution of children/animals/rape pornography, possession and/or distribution of pirated music/videos/software, sending mass spam e-mails and hacking for top security information. All those accusations are untrue and instead of believing them you should delete Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica virus.
There are a few things you should know before attempting to remove Dirección Nacional de Policía Técnica virus. You should not attempt to remove the ransomware manually because you risk harming your system.
