Believed False Flag - javaw.exe - Malware.Ransom.Agent.Generic

[Sorlyn]

Hello I was playing Minecraft when it suddenly closed and claimed that an Malware.Ransom.Agent.Generic was coming from one of the game files. I see that other people have had similar issues in the past with Malwarebytes so I strongly believe this is a false flag. Please look into this.

You may have suffered a network glitch. I see this file was whitelisted 12/08/2023 and should not have been detected in your case. 

To avoid this from happening again, you can also add the path to your allow list.

Thanks for reporting.
