How can I get rid of a virus

I accidentally downloaded a virus. My device is frozen, cannot access the internet. The virus requires the payment of $500 to unlock the screen. How can I get rid of the virus

There are ideas and additional links within this Council; However

some of the problems with a 'ransomware' scam can translate by allowing a

real attack once you leave in your phone. Otherwise, it's a bluff.

Phony 'technical support' / 'ransomware' popups and web pages

Most of the items I found in the deal with OS X and a few mention iOS.

There is an article on how to deal with the issues of adware in Safari, which

are based on the ability to boot the device with the browser, in order to

do not keep the same web address, then you can disable the source.

• Stop the pop-up ads and advertising on Safari - Apple Support

The notice of an attack is usually a bluff, iOS and OS X; When you act on

the element as they suggest, to call a phone number or click a button to allow

In addition to access, the issue intensifies; the attacker gets access to the

device and to any payment method available for their "healing" to the attack.

The scam is to get people to think that the answer is the warning, but it's

fake; acting so on him with faith is the quicksand.

Maybe you can start the machine with the browser disabled (or extensions turned off)

to see if you can follow through with the ideas presented in above links.

These ideas helped others in the past, and avoidance is the best remedy.

Good luck in this case!
