PUAs employ a "virtual layer" to generate coupon, banner, pop-up, and other similar ads. Note that the malicious website displays a full screen pop-up when attempts are made to close the browser - this can only be closed via Windows Task Manager.
You can remove this error simply by closing the web browser. Therefore, never attempt to call the aforementioned telephone number. Criminals attempt to trick victims into calling and paying for services that are not required.
Be aware, however, that this error message is a scam. Victims are then supposedly guided through the removal process. It is also stated that the malware must be eliminated immediately by contacting 'certified technicians' via the telephone number (" 0-80") provided. This error message states that malicious content has been detected and, therefore, personal information (logins, passwords, banking details, etc.) is at risk. This error is displayed by a malicious website that users visit inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted programs (PUAs) that infiltrate the system during installation of regular apps ("bundling" method). It is a fake pop-up notification (virus alert) claiming that the computer is infected.
