Help, What just happend!!!

Hey guys I was sitting on Facebook when I received a friend request on MSN I obviously I accepted because I knew it would be somebody wanting to buy my account anyways, He was going on how he wanted proof only via TeamViewer so in the end I let him after a bit of persuasion.

I showed him my cash levels etc then suddenly he takes over the screen adds a file to my desktop saying PaypalProof.JPG And my Anti Virus stopped it, before he could proceed further I immediatly shut down the computer.

I've just turned it back on and permanantly deleted the file and in full scans of the computer, so basically What the £"$% just happend!!!

oh and his msn was; [email protected]

 

the file he put was probably most likely a RAT (Remote administration tool)
or a keylogger.

if you didnt open the file you will be fine.

 

once some guy added me on MSN and then about a month later he started telling me all my passwords to everything ive ever done.. facebook/msn/rs and stuff like that. then he was saying where i went to school, my job, my parents names, my sisters name, my bank details and everyone in my houses details :S it was a scare i can tell you that

 

some 15 yr old kid probably keylogged you and worked out the details from social networking sites and google. No idea how he got your bank details unless you typed it in during that month?

 

Yer probs >_< i need beter anti virus :/ im just using MSE (microsoft security essentials) and its doing the job atm.. no doubt something is getting through

 

That's got to be the most basic and awful anti virus in existence.

Go with NOD32 or Kaspersky and you're good to go. And if you don't fancy paying their prices.. Well, you know what to do.

 

You probable accepted the Teamviewer invitation as either fileshare or remote support.

My suggestion is to use screenshots over Teamviewer no matter how tedious it is.

 

yeah thanks guys, and man, LifeRaker, that is real bad!

 

Dang dude! Did you report him to the cyber police or at least go to your police station in town? I would be freaking out.

 

yeah i would be pissed make sure you get a good anti virus

 

i suggest avg

http://www.avg.com/us-en/homepage?cmpid=aff_cj_us

 

Ya AVG is a pretty good antivirus program. But that file was probably a keylogger its a good thing you didnt open it or else you would probably be screwed right now.

 

Yeah thanks again all I do have AVG, I assume I'm in the clear as everything is fine.

 

Wow! that sounds pretty intense. Probably the same thing I would of done xD, well Try to be careful, Damn nerdz trying 2 ur pixels!

 

First of all you should not give your team viewer id and password to anyone because we dont know the person with whom we are dealing moreover he can misuse it. Nothing happens to your pc you scan your pc and run ccleaner and delete cookies and then you remove teamviewer from the control panel then your pc will be safeside.

 

get Kaspersky it works great for me

 

Ive been using Kaspersky for a good few years now, and it has never failed me!
