About 1K7nnDHosR5czKZtuKT928YSxXXNSaDK6H

The Trojan Horse infections are really dreadful and, therefore, it is completely understandable why many web users tend to get panicked as soon as they see something that may suggest that such malware could have compromised their computer. Unfortunately, there are a lot of online crooks who rely on the users’ fear of Trojans to make quick money and a proof of that is one recently detected phishing email BitCoin scam, which has been spreading around the Internet. This new scam is rather simple: the hacker (or so they claim to be) sends an email message to their victims, which informs them that their system has been infected with a hidden Trojan Horse virus. The users are blackmailed to pay ransom to the hacker’s BitCoin wallet in order to prevent them from harming the computer system or messing with the data in the machine. A number of web users have already been greeted by such scam messages but what you should know about them is that, in most of the cases, the scammers who are sending them are just bluffing about a non-existent infection in order to make the victims pay the ransom. Oftentimes, it is all a ruse and, unless you really have any other reason to believe that you have been infected with a Trojan Horse, you should not believe anything that those email scams claim and you should certainly not send any money to the blackmailer.

However, we still need to warn you that there are Trojans such as 1K7nnDHosR5czKZtuKT928YSxXXNSaDK6H which are serious software threats. They may indeed be used by the hackers to cause harm in your system or to provide the cyber criminals with full remote access to your machine. What is more, scam messages like the ones that we described above can effectively be used to spread such infections. That’s why, if you have opened and interacted with an email like this one, it is a good idea to carefully check your entire PC for 1K7nnDHosR5czKZtuKT928YSxXXNSaDK6H and use the instructions in the removal guide below to immediately remove it in case that you detect it.
