What is El Equipo ha Sido Bloqueado?
The El Equipo ha Sido Bloqueado por Violar las Leyes de Espana message blocks computer users' screens and should not be trusted, since it does not originate from the authorities of Spain.
In fact, this is a scam released by cyber criminals in the hope that unsuspecting PC users will fall for their trickery and pay the bogus fine. This message is a ransomware infection originating from a family of screen lockers called Adneukine. Infections from this family are localized (translated into various languages and enhanced using graphics of local authorities).
To determine which variant of ransomware should be displayed, these screen lockers detect the IP addresses of computers they are about to infiltrate. For example, ransomware infiltrating a computer located in the UK would display a message as if delivered from the Specialist Crime Directorate Police Central E-Crime Unit.
Similarly, computer users from the USA would see this ransomware as being sent by the Internet Crime Complaint Center. No international authorities (such as the FBI, Interpol, Metroloptan Police, etc.) including Spanish authorities, use screen lockers to collect fines for copyright infringements or other laws violations.
