  1. I think my laptop got hacked


    Last Saturday my laptop was making noise when I opened it to get on. It said I had been hacked and to call a number, which I did. The lady sounded like she was from India. She showed me where my laptop had been hacked since 2010. She moved so fast. I ended up paying for her to clean up my computer, (I should of known better). I could see that she copied my whole hard drive which now scares me. They have all my information. I tried to send Microsoft an email with my phone because my phone has a video of what I saw when I tried to log on. I haven't heard from Microsoft yet as I sent it just this morning. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

    Email Hacked

    Hello Greg

    thank you for your response and the great information you provided.

    I use two step authentication for my email account and all important web sites. I also use the full version of Malwarebytes to protect my computer.

    But I will do the scans you suggested AdwCleaner and Limewire.com and let you know the results.

    I am worried though that the webcam installed on my laptop could have been hacked. I never use it and forgot about it, so never disabled it.

    Any suggestions as to find if it was actually hacked?

    thank you

    mike

    In Progress I think my laptop has been hacked


    I agree with Tairiku. It's a full screen browser window hijack/malware
    If you really did reinstall Windows, did you delete all partitions first? Where did you get your install media from?
    I would suggest a clean install, deleting all partitions and installing to a completely unallocated drive.
