I have been hacked
Hello,
I'm new here, never posted.
I was in bed and started to receive sms/alerts of buying things with my cards.
I came to my iMac and it was being remotely controlled.
The mouse was moving and someone was trying to send money over paypal.
I would apprecciate help into checking if paypal was charged or not, because I saw a "send money to ..." screen my I cannot review any kind of activity like sending money.
The hacker also tried buy Xbox Live cards in the site https://cheapestgamecards.com/Xbox-Giftcards but was denied by PayPal (don't understand why) but the orders were cancelled.
My amazon account was charged to Xbox Live cards, if you can help me trying to reverse the buy, please do. Right now Amazon is closed (5AM).
Somehow the account got blocked because I had to reset the access (probably to many frequent access by the hacker.
I tried to move the mouse and I was fighting with them so I unplugged the Ethernet cord.
In the taskbar it was the two computer icon, which I am 99% sure that it appears if I connect to the mac via VNC.
Apple Remote Desktop was enabled (which I turn off in the meantime).
I also use other remote dekstop software solutions, like teamviewer and anydesk.
Looking in the internet I found this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8275720
It seems the same kind, so I'm opening this thread right now.
In that thread they suggest using Etrecheck, which I did.
Here it goes (down probably)
I also found this site https://sites.google.com/site/howtotellifyourmacishacked/is-etrecheck-malware which says EtreCheck is malware, so I ran a scan in Malware bytes and found nothing. Right now I am paranoid and trust none app.
What do you suggest to do right now?
Thank you very much.
