        I was watching porn and suddenly my computer was blocked and demanding penalty. From the Indian government. The site looks pretty legit and as I am a student I got scared and unplugged the computer. And now it’s gone once I restarted it.

        It said something about clearing my data and sending police to my house if I didn’t pay fine.

        It was like an audio saying this stuff. And I couldn’t leave the site. I am really scared. Help.

        I read news articles saying it’s scam but none of them are recent. I won’t be arrested right?

                    It’s scam, they just create a fake website to get money from ppl who get scared lol, even if you see it later in life just wait for 10 mins and close browser or restart it will go away,
                    But do not click on any links on the site then u will be safe.

                        Its a scam. You don’t go to jail for watching pxrn, unless its illegal one.

                          It’s a scam. Its more like a video that’s programmed to popup in these situations. Just press escape or Alt+f4 and you’ll be fine.
