Vk Documents Hot < ESSENTIAL › >

| Violation Type | Typical Takedown Time | User Consequence | |--------------------------|-----------------------|------------------------------------------| | Copyrighted e-books | 2–24 hours (after report) | Document removed; warning on account | | Malware (.exe) | 15 min – 2 hours | Document removed + account restriction | | Extremist/illegal content| 1 hour or less | Account ban + potential law enforcement |

To keep a document "hot," it needs constant velocity. If 1,000 people download a file in the first hour, it stays hot. If it takes a week to reach 1,000 downloads, it remains "recent" but never "hot."

Attackers upload executable files (.exe, .scr) disguised as “hot” documents (e.g., “ExamAnswers.exe”). Unsuspecting users download and run them, leading to ransomware or credential theft.
