One of the comments point ut bad grammar....i'm not that great with mine but even i could see how badly worded it was lol

Meh, looks an easy fake to spot

It'll be bad when they start doing this..

-Scan your ProgramFiles dir to see which security software you're running, then show a screen that looks 100% the same as your AV software, with a fake 'Scan Now' button that goes to another website.

Really wouldn't be hard for them to do

I don't know, it looks quite convincing for your average user - big red screen they've probably seen once or twice before now telling them they have a problem. Hopefully most AV will detect stuff like this.
