1  Other / Beginners & Help / I have been hacked... what now? on: December 19, 2018, 05:00:13 PM
Okay so long story short.

 

I donwloaded a program without AV because i thought Windows Defender was good enough.

 

This happened around 2 months ago: Downloaded the program, ran the setup installed it and ran it. All fine. In the next 2 hours, I have gone onto my emails to find out someone was in my yahoo mailbox and tried to get into my crypto online wallets which were empty. I bought bullguard antivirus straightaway and ran scan which found viruses. I changed my passwords, reinstalled windows and changed passwords again. I thought that was it. 300 dollars gone off my paypal account, and 15 dollars used to buy GTA V off my other paypal account.  I bought Ledger Nano S and stored 20 000 xrp on it, worth £10 000. Yesterday i woke up to find out that all my ripples from ledger have been moved to this adress which i suppose is the hackers address rUF5TKP4JNyXsHWjHYVWH7ugCB6FTabM8U.

 

Also the hacker who bought the gta has used a fake passport with my name on it to send to the game provider to prove "it was me" who bought it.

 

I probably wont be able to recover my life savings will I?

will be going to police station tomorrow also if they can help?

i had sensitive files on my pc, such as letters i wrote and pictures of my driving licence.

 

what can i do to make sure this does not happen ever again, and what else can the hackers do? Is my personal information for sale on dark web? Who knew 1 small application could ruin a life...

 

i am afraid they can take all my money from my bank accounts
