ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE Virus

Also Known As: Policie České Republiky Ransomware
Damage level: Severe

What is ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE?

The ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE message blocks users' computer screens demanding payment of a 3000 CZK fine for supposed law violations relating to copyright, spam, etc.  

This is a ransomware scam, a type of infection developed by cyber criminals who operate by exploiting local authority names and displaying fake messages in order to extort bogus fines from computer users.

This ransomware predominantly targets computer users from the Czech Republic, however, note that there are several different families relating to this type of infection. The Czech Republic is targeted by the Reveton and Urausy ransomware families.

Neither ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE nor any other international authorities use screen lockers to collect fines for any law infringements. If you see such a message on your computer screen, your PC is infected with a ransomware virus. If you pay the 3000 CZK fine, you will send your money to cyber criminals.

Note also that Ransomware infections from the Urasy and Reveton families are localized. For example, PC users from the USA, with machines infected with ransomware from these families, receive messages as if sent by the FBI or ICE.  

A variant of this ransomware virus, "Ceske Republik POLICE", forces users into paying 100 Euros using Ukash or PaySafeCard:

A variant of this ransomware virus, Policie České Republiky "Počítač je uzamčen poskytovatele služeb Internetu", originates from a family called Revoyem (DirtyDecrypt). Notice that at time of writing, no known tools are available to decrypt files encrypted by this ransomware virus.

The ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE Ukash Virus and other ransomware infections are particularly dangerous, since after infiltrating users' systems, they block access to all operating system features. In some cases, the only way to eliminate a scam of this kind is either by using a rescue disk or performing a system restore.

Commonly, cyber criminals use Trojans and malicious websites to spread these ransomware viruses. If your PC is already infected with the ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA POLICIE Ukash ransomware, do not pay the fine - use the removal guide provided to unblock your computer.

Ukash (Smart Voucher Limited) is a legitimate company and not related to ransomware viruses - cyber criminals use this service to extort money from unsuspecting PC users.
