SecurityEssentialFraud
SecurityEssentialFraud is the detection for a rogue security application. SecurityEssentialFraud uses fake or exaggerated scan results and security alerts to trick users into believing that their systems are infected with dangerous malware. Then it will prompt a user to purchase rogue anti-spyware in order to remove the falsely detected malware. Remove SecurityEssentialFraud from your system upon detection to avoid further damage to your system and to stop those annoying security alerts from popping up.
