What is seriencev.com?
seriencev.com is a deceptive website that is virtually identical to looksslike.com, fastpushnotification.com, estinctwexforda.info, and many others. As with the these examples, seriencev.com causes unwanted redirects and delivers dubious content.
In most cases, visitors arrive at this site unintentionally - they are redirected by intrusive advertisements and various potentially unwanted applications (PUAs), most of which infiltrate computers without users’ permission. In addition to causing redirects, PUAs deliver intrusive advertisements and gather information.
What is searchsecurepro.co?
searchsecurepro.co is another faker search engine promoted using the Search Secure browser hijacker. This potentially unwanted application (PUA) is known to distribute searchsecureprime.co.
Search Secure claims to enhance computer safety whilst browsing the internet, however, this app often infiltrates systems, diminishes the browsing experience, and gathers information.
What is AYE?
Discovered by Jakub Kroustek, AYE is another variant of high-risk ransomware called Dharma. AYE stealthily infiltrates the system and encrypts most stored files. In doing so, it adds the ".AYE" extension together with the victim's unique ID and developer's email address to the name of each encrypted file.
For instance, "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.id-1E857D00.[sebekgrime@tutanota.com].AYE". Once data is encrypted, AYE opens a pop-up window and generates a text file ("FILES ENCRYPTED.txt"), placing it on the desktop.
What is Brushaloader?
Brushaloader is a trojan-type infection that works as remote access tool (RAT) and injects additional malware into the system. It is typically distributed using spam email campaigns. Cyber criminals send hundreds of thousands of emails encouraging users to open attached files.
These are usually .RAR archives that contain Visual Basic script (.vbs) designed to inject malware into the system.
What is looksslike.com?
Rogue websites such as looksslike.com crowd the internet. This website is virtually identical to supervicesfun.club, enewssubspush.info, efishedo.info, and a number of other web pages of this type. It forces people to visit other untrustworthy websites (by causing redirects) or displays dubious content.
Few users visit looksslike.com intentionally, since potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) cause redirects to it. Typically, people install these apps accidentally. When installed, they deliver advertisements and collect data.
What is Bin?
Bin is a ransomware-type program and one variant of the Scarab ransomware family. Its developers use it to encrypt data (files stored on victims' computers) and to blackmail people by demanding ransom payments in return for access to the files. The ransom message (which is in Russian) can be found in a text file called "Instructions.TXT".
Bin modifies the name of each encrypted name by adding an additional ".bin" extension. For instance, "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.bin".
What is fastpushnotification.com?
fastpushnotification.com belongs to the category of rogue websites that cause redirects to potentially malicious websites or display dubious content. There are many websites of this type on the internet. Some examples are supervicesfun.club, enewssubspush.info, and entriedreligible.info.
Typically, users are forced to visit fastpushnotification.com due to potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) that they have installed on their computers or browsers inadvertently. PUAs usually cause unwanted redirects, serve intrusive ads, and gather information.
What is extremefreegames.com?
The internet is crowded with rogue websites like extremefreegames.com. Other examples are supervicesfun.club, enewssubspush.info, and efishedo.info. The main objective of this website is to present dubious content or redirect visitors to other malicious sites.
Generally, people are forced to visit extremefreegames.com due to potentially unwanted apps (PUAs) installed on their computers or browsers. Therefore, most people arrive at this site inadvertently. Users generally install PUAs accidentally - these apps usually go on to record data and display online ads.
What is estinctwexforda.info?
estinctwexforda.info is very similar to many other websites of this type including supervicesfun.club, enewssubspush.info, and efishedo.info. This rogue website is designed to redirect visitors to other untrustworthy sites or display dubious, deceptive content.
Most people visit this website unintentionally - they are redirected by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). Few users install these apps willingly. PUAs force users to visit dubious websites, display various ads, and collect information.
What is BlackPink?
Discovered by Michael Gillespie, BlackPink ransomware is a malicious program that developers (cyber criminals) use to extort money from victims by encrypting data stored on their computers and making ransom demands. When a computer is infected with this program, all files become unusable.
Furthermore, BlackPink adds the ".BlackPink" extension to every encrypted file. For example, "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.BlackPink". It also generates a ransom demand message in Korean within a text file called "how_to_recver_files.txt". BlackPink's victims should be able to find this file in every folder that contains encrypted files.
