Europol: Emotet malware will uninstall itself on April 25th

Law enforcement has started to distribute an Emotet module to infected devices that will uninstall the malware on April 25th, 2021. The German Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) federal police agency was responsible for this action. Germany’s BKA has arranged for the malware to be quarantined in the computer systems affected. The module is designed to prevent additional malware from being installed on the infected computer by untethering the victim computer from the botnet from the infected device. German law enforcement replaced the C2 servers with their own servers to distribute a “law enforcement file”””
