https://proxy.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.removemalwarevirus.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F04%2FPUBG-Ransomware.jpg&f=1 Virus Report: The PUBG Virus The ransomware that FORCES you to play PUBG. That's right, a hacker has created a ransomware that forces you to play PUBG for one hour before it unlocks your computer. http://www.gablescinema.com/media/filmassets/slides/a_clockwork_orange_4.jpg There is also a code displayed that you can enter to remove the lock. How generous. In terms of maliciousness this virus is probably not going to hurt you, at least from the surface. To my knowledge nobody has yet to dissect the code of the virus to see what it is doing in the background. If anything it serves as a friendly reminder that you need to take better security precautions.  If you want to avoid ransomware attacks on your rig (assuming you have windows 10) this guide from Microsoft will show you multiple methods to enable controlled folder access: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-exploit-guard/enable-controlled-folders-exploit-guard You can whitelist apps and add protected folders from your controlled folder tab. Thanks for stopping by! -Danbiohackingman out
