So I was browsing the roblox site, going through hats on the catalog etc, when all of a sudden a FBI warning popped up. It didn't have a way to close it, so i pressed (shut down button) to clear my desktop.. I searched the fbi warning and it's a virus. It can apparently attach to any website/link/file/etc.. I'm pretty sure I'm not aloud to say any links so if you want to google the virus the name(s) of it are: Ransomware, MoneyPak , The Reveton virus, Citadel malware.. There's a few more that I don't want to list. I've been getting " THREAT HAS BEEN DETECTED" messages from my antivirus (avast) for the past 20 minutes. theres been about 10 now..
but anyways, has anyone got this before? |

| The FBI warning virus is common for those who have downloaded a virus. Roblox doesn't give viruses. |

| Run scans with your security software, once completed, check your task manager. You could be KL'ed or you've got a bad virus. |

| In Spain there are these sites that don't let you leave, and they say "to stop receiving this warning please choose a purchase method below". They're mainly fake police sites. |

| Hang in there, and just let it scan. Did you let your little brother or someone else on your computer? |

" The latest research from the avast! Virus Lab shows that more than 80% of malware (viruses, spyware, and the like) spreads through legitimate websites," Yes, I read the virus copies your keystrokes as well. (309) Viruses Detected. This still isn't removing is as fast as I want it to lol. |

@tac they don't mean it automatically appears on every legit website you don't understand what it means
just scan with this program called malwarebytes anti malware and forget this ever happened. |

| If it doesn't let you download antiviruses from the websites, get a friend to download it for you from a USB, and rename the AV'S file. |

I understand what it means, people were saying because I downloaded the virus. but in like first post, I said when i searched it It spreads through websites/links etc.
I scan everything i download. then i scan it after download and after running

"While browsing the Internet, a window popped up with no way to close it,” one Reveton victim recently wrote to the IC3. “The window was labeled ‘FBI’ and said I was in violation of one of the following: illegal use of downloaded media, under-age (bad stuff) viewing, or computer-use negligence. It listed fines and penalties for each and directed me to pay $200 via a MoneyPak order. Instructions were given on how to load the card and make the payment. The page said if the demands were not met, criminal charges would be filed and my computer would remain locked on that screen."
( The title is a question for a reason, ASKING in a way if I got the virus from roblox. )
