I quoted your post so that we can see the images.

Did you fell for the trap though? Before you download any crypto related apps, you have to verify it's signature like in Electrum. There has been a lot of attacks lately, Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask.

Thank you for understanding but I'm up here to warn and let the community know to avoid cases like me

Someone new trying to deal with you and has no prior conversations with you. Isn't that a big red flag to avoid such attempts? I also received such messages a while ago but now I don't find this on my TG anymore (maybe I deleted it) but the catch is that the guy is sending you password and so much sensitive information to someone he doesn't knows. Anyway can smell fishy from miles away.

Someone smart enough wouldn't fall for this.

I get the same message once or twice daily. But this is the first time I trust it. I downloaded it and installed as a result they took control of my computer.
I really feel scared.

Oh well, at least you learn your lessons here, you shouldn't trust anyone. Just because they say you download certain apps and they will gave you free cryptos, you will blindly trust and follow them. You need to be smart and think logically. Education is the key here, and that is our main weapon against those cyber criminals. Not blaming you, but next time, be very very careful.

Yes, this is probably the last time I believe in such scammers, and in the future I hope there won't be anyone who has encountered the same situation.
