Windows 10: I’m dealing with fraud

Someone with Hotmail address *** Email address is removed for privacy *** has taken over my Facebook and social media. Got into my PayPal as well. I cannot stop them. Can Microsoft ban them?

Pentium M

Not sure what I'm looking at. Though when I do go to Options and then CPU it lists my CPU
as Intel Pentium M processor 1.73 GHz, and then under that it lists speed: 799.9 MHz
and then features and cache size.I ran the benchmark test and don't understand all
those numbers, but while testing I checked CPUZ and it still says it is running at 800 MHz.

Yes, that's a fraud and you were scammed.

Computer fraud

I've been following up with the problem and so far it looks like it originated elsewhere and not on my computer. Of the two separate fraud charges I've researched one and spoke with the company that was attempted with the fraud and they are a UK company
and the charges were online using a VPN, they flagged it and it never went through. They believe based on their best guess (and experience) that the charge came from China.

The other charge was made to a Pennsylvania cosmetics retailer and it went through, actually more than once, and the products were shipped to an address. I've spoken with the cosmetics retailer over the phone and they won't share any details for security
purposes but I've contacted various authorities and I'm waiting to see what they learn based on the information I gave them. I find it interesting that the UK charges were flagged but the cosmetics ones were not. Hmm? Hopefully the authorities can give me
some info regarding what name and address and card info was used for that purchase. If the purchase occurred without all the correct info then that says something right there about that cosmetics company anyway. So I'll wait and see.

This next part is likely a long, long shot but almost the same time this fraud on my credit card occurred I also began receiving aggressive fraud spam, and also at this time I was dealing with a California business whom I purchased a product from online
(not with the card that later was breached, in fact paid with PayPal) and later they refuse to honor their warranty claim when the part turned out to be bad. I researched the company and they use a fake name and have another business name with two people's
names listed as the owners and at least one appears to be Chinese, the other I'm not sure about. I was pressing them to honor their warranty and tenaciously following up with them and they may be upset with that and possibly are retaliating with the fraud
spam and card breach? As I said it may be a long shot but it seems peculiar that at that same time I'm dealing with this company (unsatisfactorily) I also start getting aggressive fraud spam and then one of my cards is breached. I'm guessing most or all of
the auto parts this California company sells online are from China, and it wouldn't surprise me if the company is Chinese and is based in China with an office and retail outlet in California. They also appear to have the same office and retail outlet in Australia.

We'll see what the authorities get back to me with. Any thoughts from you Rob?
