I thought I was calling PayPal and it ended up being a scam and they had me download any desk which I have now removed but my bank said I needed to make sure they didn’t have access to everything on my phone. Does anyone know how to check for this or how to Make sure they can’t get further access

I would start by changing ALL of your passwords.

Yes I did. I called the number I found on Google for PayPal services and the first gentleman I spoke to told me that they were with Apple and that he was going to connect me to Apple. He connected me to somebody. The guy gave me a name said that he was with Apple security, and he had me download The app again after I realize the first time I called someone it was a scam and I was talking to the guy I got a feeling that it wasn’t legit and I hung up and immediately contacted my bank.
