CoinVault Image
CoinVault is a less complex variant of the CryptoWall Ransomware. CoinVault is spread to susceptible computers by other threats or a Trojan. CoinVault shows a bogus pop-up image/notification that warns infected computer users about the encryption of their files. The deceptive pop-up warning message of CoinVault blocks the infected system, encrypts your crucial files and claims that the computer users need to pay for a decryption key in order to restore access to their indispensable files. However, the paid ransom will not help computer users to restore access to their computers because CoinVault is designed by cyber hackers to rip computer users off. Computer user will be prevented from using their machines since they will be completely blocked. CoinVault claims that the affected computer users must pay a fee of 0.7 Bitcoins to recover their encrypted files. After being installed, CoinVault will handicap almost all of your executable files as a way to prevent its removal. Your security programs will probably be disabled. Basically, CoinVault takes the computer hostage and demands the payment of a ransom to restore access. Do not pay the so-called ransom because you will face financial losses. You should use a reputable anti-malware application to uninstall CoinVault from the corrupted PC.
