Achtung!!! Ein Vorgang illegaler Aktivitaten wurde erkannt. Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft Ransomware (Uninstall Guide)

"Achtung!!! Ein Vorgang illegaler Aktivitaten wurde erkannt. Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft" is a part of ransomware warning message that locks the affected user's computer screen and makes a demand for payment of 150 Swiss francs (about $160). Why? Well, it seems that your were watching or sharing illegal adult content and sending spam, in other words, you had been committing a crime. The Federal Department of Justice and Police has gather the evidence and will send the case in for prosecution if you won't pay the ransom. You have 24 hours to make payment through Paysafecard; otherwise they will wipe all the information on your computer. But then it doesn't make sense because the evidence will be deleted as well. This is confusing the hell out of me. However, the good news is that this "Ein Vorgang illegaler Aktivitaten wurde erkannt." message is complete false.
