Kindlybox.online

By GoldSparrow in Browser Hijackers

The Kindlybox[.]online site is part of a technical support hoax that might be as old as the Internet itself. The Kindlybox.online site is designed to spam users with a message box that says 'YOUR COMPUTER HAS BEEN BLOCKED.' The dialog boxes generated by Kindlybox[.]online interrupt the normal operation of browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Pages like Kindlybox[.]online include a special script called 'pop-up loop' by cyber security experts. The script is responsible for making your browser unresponsive and preventing you from leaving a certain page. Consequently, the users who are stuck on Kindlybox[.]online may believe the fake security alert on their screen. The Kindlybox[.]online pop-up warnings are recorded to feature the following text:

Cyber security experts add that the same text can be found on the Oltwabservernlife[.]club site but there is another phone line. Both suggest that you will find help in "removing the virus" on your system by calling 877-678-3030 and 866-940-2699. Microsoft advises against following the instructions displayed via misleading security alerts. It is best that you report phishing pages like Oltwabservernlife[.]club and Kindlybox.online to your browser vendor and Microsoft. That way, suspicious sites can be checked for problems, and you can help build a safer Web. Con artists operate the 877-678-3030 and 866-940-2699 toll-free phone lines and wait to take advantage from users who lack adequate computer skills and fail to recognize scam sites. PC users may want to add a trusted security solution to their systems that features the latest security updates and can block access to phishing portals before they are loaded on your screen. We have found that Oltwabservernlife[.]club and Kindlybox.online have multiple clones registered to the 198.211.99.58 and the 160.153.78.64 IP addresses. The list below is incomplete since the con artists make new sites almost every day to keep their scam going:
