"BUNDESPOLIZEI Achtung! Ein Vorgang illegaler Aktivitaten wurde erkannt." My German is not very good but I think this sentence means that German Federal Police caught you doing something wrong. It is not very often that we see ransomware that targets Internet users in Germany. It states that you were watching pornography and doing other illegal activities. The Trojan horse demands payment (100 Euro) in exchange for the unlock key. You can send money via Ukash or PaySafeCard. It also displays your IP, ISP, location and the version of web browser you're using to make you think you're in big trouble. The ransom Trojan blocks pretty much everything, even in safe mode. Don't fall victim to the BUNDESPOLIZEI scam. Spend your 100 Euros on something else. We've got the removal instructions to help you to remove this "BUNDESPOLIZEI" ransomware for free. Please follow the steps in the removal guide below. Good luck and be safe online!
