The virus manifests itself by starting it off with a pop-up that would state that the user’s Adobe Flash Player is outdated and in need of an update which would promptly advertise a latest version download to the user. The reason behind why these criminals would bait users with flash player is probably because this is a common application that’s being used by many and that there are many videos and online games that would require the use of it too so it’s often easy to prey on most users because let’s face it, we would much rather listen and watch high quality content and if it has to come to simply having to update your Flash Player, then why not? Most people wouldn’t see what’s wrong with having to update their Adobe Flash Player and most have considered the program a trustworthy one which is why it’s such an obvious bait to be used by criminals to perform their crime.
