FBI warns of online scheme that purports to be from FBI

There are several variations of the FBI Moneypak Virus out there, coming with different looks and feels when your computer is locked and you no longer have control. If you have been infected with the FBI Moneypak Virus, DO NOT attempt to pay any money and TURN OFF your machine promptly in any way. Newer variations of the Virus take a screenshot and/or start recording through any attached webcams. It is not certain whether or not this data is being transferred anywhere, however, there is a high probability that it is. Creepy… Please bring your infected machine in so that we may remove this Virus for you!
