Website445-info.win operates as a typical technical support tactic. Website445-info.win targets Windows-based computers and takes over the installed browsers. Website445-info.win can affect all of the most popular Web browsers - Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. Website445-info.win will begin to generate pop-up windows in an attempt to scare the user into calling a certain telephone number and transfer money to the cybercrooks subsequently. The pop-ups may block the browser entirely while in some cases it also may enter in full-screen mode making its removal even harder.

Website445-info.win claims that the user's machine is infected with malware that collects various login credentials and private data. In the message, the cybercrooks warn that the infected computer will be disabled unless the user calls the provided number. Of course, none of these affirmations are true. The people behind Website445-info.win have only one goal - to take money from the unsuspecting victims in exchange for a bogus malware-removal software or instructions.
