MAC OS VIRUS SCAN ONLINE INSTALL

We advise against downloading applications that are promoted using scam websites. In fact, the website states that it promotes the Mac Speedup Pro. To remove them, macos-online-security-checkcom offers download of the Mac Cleanup Pro app by clicking the 'REMOVE VIRUSES NOW' button.

If the 'Scan Now' button is clicked, this website starts a fake scan that, once finished, states that it has detected Tapsnake, CronDNS, and Dubfishicv viruses. Visitors are encouraged to scan their systems within a few minutes, otherwise the detected viruses might cause data or even financial loss. When closed, this scam website informs visitors that their Mac computers are infected with more than one virus that it has detected: two malware infections and one phishing/spyware infection. Macos-online-security-checkcom displays a pop-up window stating that this website has detected a trojan virus that should be removed immediately. PUAs feed users with ads and gather information relating to browsing activity. People are often redirected to these websites by PUAs already installed on their browsers or computers.

In fact, this is a common scam that displays a fake virus alert.
