The only apps that were running at the time were Adobe Photoshop, Telegram, Discord, and Google Chrome
Stop using Google Chrome and use Firefox instead. There is suspicion that Google Chrome likely is compromised these days. Stop using it, uninstall it from your device at the moment. Firefox and Tor browsers are better. If you don't use Google Chrome, you shouldn't use Brave browser too.
Thanks for the tips. I have no other reason for using Google Chrome other than being used to it since I started working online way before I entered crypto-space. I guess it never crossed my mind how vulnerable I am using it.
It is your good move until the dust settles.
I notice that you did not change your forum account password. Why not?
And if you use a captcha bypass code, please change it to a new code too.
Changing them all now and after you make sure your device is clean, changing them all one more time.
I got your invitation to work with you in some projects and I appreciated it a lot so it is very bad for me to see this accident. Good luck and get well soon julerz12.
Thanks, I just changed it right after I made a full scan of my current system.
A bunch of wacky scripts were found by my current AV, forgot the names 'cause I just immediately let the AV settle it. I will now wipe my system and install a new one.
I assume OP was/is using the same windows PC for browsing, downloading stuffs, holding funds, etc. which is not recommended at all. Too many malwares across the internet (smarter than your antivirus), you click a simple link and wont even know what problems are waiting for you ahead.
Unfortunately Yes. While I have another device, it's a Chromebook that's used by my wife. It doesn't necessarily support the Apps I required to run the bounty campaign management service. So I'm stuck with my one and only PC.
