Could someone post a copy of the .exe for investigation?
Put it in an archive so no one accidentally runs it.

If you clicked this link and have bitcoin running, or a wallet.dat somewhere on your computer, be quick!

Disconnect computer from the internet immediately!!!!!! (so virus cannot communicate)

Take your wallet.dat with you, find another computer and create a new wallet.

Send coins to new address.

If you ran the program or suspect your pc has been compromised, I would recommend creating a new wallet on a different computer and transfer all your coins to the new address immediately.

Yeah, I just got this message also.

I consider myself fairly tech savvy and usually detect these scams, but this looks legit and I clicked the link, lucky my email client opened the exe as a text file instead.

No doubt that sucker is going straight for your wallet.dat

People will loose coins from this!


Anyone know the details about this particular one to make sure it's completely removed. My virus scanner found something but I want to make sure it got it all!!

Just got a warning that I somehow broke forum rules. Looks like a picture link or screenshot. Virus tries to get on computer!
