I am not aware of any legit app/software that can connect to your device unless you give it permission. Otherwise, your device is infected with a backdoor. If someone wants to connect to your PC using team viewer he must know your IP/ID and the correct password. You have to disable some features from team viewer settings to make the guest unable to upload/download files from/to your PC. Always use a good firewall and monitor your network activity.

I've come across such a case, where an individual gave access to someone he thought was a member of an ICO team to help fix his wallet (the project had a separate blockchain). And the imposter made away with all the funds he/she had on that wallet.
Also if you're a bag holder in any currency, it's preferable to have a separate device for the safekeeping of your assets, different from the one you use to browse and visit sites. This reduces the risks of falling victim to some malicious link.

It's not about permission. It' about giving permissions to unknown people on the internet to your computer. Even if a remote TV connection is estabilished with restricted actions, a malicious entity could reset the connection and restart a session to start in default "clickable" session. If you don't take immediate action it could result in very dangerous situation.

The best way to avoid this is to keep your PC in your room and its should be for private use only,no friends no family no connections because most times if you allow friends or even families to use your personal PC they might betray you,it happened to me once

It is about remote access using software like Team Viewer that allows another party to use your computer without having physical access to it. He can transfer files, read your documents etc. That's what this is about.

I have used a tool the same as TeamViewer and a computer at the school where my brother is teaching, my brother install the app and connect it to our computer at home and I can see whatever the person is doing where the person that time is searching for gowns and log in facebook. That's not all, I even take control of the computer itself without me using it myself at the school. I can also save a file there from the computer at home. To whoever or any person didn't know about this would only think that the computer is broken or it is infected with virus. Anyway, it's for fun only and never scam anyone at all then I never use it again on another computer. My experience is to let you guys who don't know about a program like Team Viewer will make your computer at "GREAT RISK because of it, so never download any App or programs that you didn't know at all.

I also want to add something. Do not think that if you are not new that this can't happen to you. I was networking with a project I was doing some bounty work for here and I discussed a few things with the team. They wanted to remotely control my pc with Teamviewer. I think they were probably legit but I didn't feel comfortable so I said another time maybe. I never was asked again since the project just sort of fell a part. The point is had they been scammers they could have confused me and got me off my guard. Also be logical. There are definitely times when having someone control your pc remotely is useful. That is why is was made xP

Stay aware, stay safe. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) If you are smart enough, you will not let anyone scam you through team viewer if he is operating the screen in front of you. We should be knowing how to use the software correctly. Even if you are using team viewer, you should have complete knowledge of it. There is one feature which is called "Unattended access" whereby you just give your partner one time password and the next time he can connect with you PC even if you are not on the PC. So never enable that option. If you take proper precautions, then you will be safe.

Is this possible? I've never tried TeamViewer but I have let someone see what I'm doing while doing something for him. Is it possible for him to do something to my pc then and there? I don't have plans to let someone control my pc using Teamviewer but what could he possibly do even if you gave him access? You're monitoring it for the whole time he's controlling your pc unless you're an idiot and left him to do his thing without monitoring it. I would naturally hide my important files and such inside a deeply hidden folder so that he would need to take a few steps to open it. This would inform me that he is trying to find something and I could easily terminate the connection right? What im worried about is if its possible to send malware or the like when using teamviewer hiddenly without the owner knowing even though the sender is being monitored.

You can also transfer the files between the two computers which are connected to the team viewer. Also, malware and Trojans can be transported between the computers. Usually the receiver end of the person is the one who has asked for some help and the experienced person who is actually helping and taking control of the PC can intentionally misuse the authority.

People would pretend to be working for microsoft and say that your computer is infected. They would instruct you to download and install team viewer in order to "repair" your pc. There are a number of videos on youtube of people scambaiting such scammers and wasting their time. Checkout KitBoga on youtube. Remember: Microsoft does not call anyone regarding a virus on your computer.

This is a common strategy for the bad guys, I don’t even trust technicians who accesses my desktop using any remote tools. One needs to be pretty silly to trust a person they've never heard of it met before and let them remotely connect to their personal computer, ESPECIALLY if they have wallets and accounts in it, without ever seeing that person face to face in real life. It's like letting someone help you with a problem regarding your credit card by giving him your PIN code. It's just silly and whoever falls in this trap honestly kinda deserves it. A human interaction always feels way safer than a virtual one when it comes to having issues like these. Would you rather call an unknown number and tell them all the details about your card or go to the bank itself and speak with somebody who is a legit agent there? If you have a problem with something, try to solve it though non-fishy and safe ways. Always speak to legit personnel.

I just saw an youtube video from a guy a few days ago about Cryptopia and his Pac coins and he speaks about how he was call an support number ! But finaly they got no real support phone number and he called someone and after a few min they asked about to install or open up team viewer and they connected to his pc. And looking around on his exchange accounts and all and at some stage they asked for his coinbase account and wanted too look there . At this point he just cut the phone call and the internet connection for his pc. Little scary and at the other side realy stupid to let unknowen people get access to your Computer.
Just a short story about how things can get with team viewer and nobody should let anybody others access to the pc as only yourself.

As you accumulate your funds so is your knowledge in protecting yourself.

At this point he just cut the phone call and the internet connection for his pc. Little scary and at the other side realy stupid to let unknowen people get access to your Computer.
Just a short story about how things can get with team viewer and nobody should let anybody others access to the pc as only yourself.
That person video may well be false too as Cryptopia exchange no longer exists and no one can get Cryptopia support. Really there are too many ways to scam people and the only reason they often succeed in there mission is that we are careless and do not think what we are doing.

I just saw an youtube video from a guy a few days ago about Cryptopia and his Pac coins and he speaks about how he was call an support number ! But finaly they got no real support phone number and he called someone and after a few min they asked about to install or open up team viewer and they connected to his pc. And looking around on his exchange accounts and all and at some stage they asked for his coinbase account and wanted too look there . At this point he just cut the phone call and the internet connection for his pc. Little scary and at the other side realy stupid to let unknowen people get access to your Computer.

That person video may well be false too as Cryptopia exchange no longer exists and no one can get Cryptopia support. Really there are too many ways to scam people and the only reason they often succeed in there mission is that we are careless and do not think what we are doing. @noormcs5 I feel the video was true as the person has narrated his experience that he got from the call, but the person calling him was a scammer there’s no doubt about it. While I know people can’t always smell these scams, but Cryptopia has been down since quite a while now and it’s under liquidation he should have used common sense before giving him access. Also this is an important lesson for all i.e. never allow anyone to access to your PC via team viewer, you can loose lots of personal data if you take such foolish decisions. Cryptopia down: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/
