Hi, the title says it all but here’s the rundown text I got from a family friend. Feels like malware but hoping for solutions. They have bought new computers and it still spread. Thanks !

“Hey bro, how’s everything going? I was wondering do you or your brother know anyone in cyber security? Our network was hacked and they’ve been wreaking havoc in our lives for the last month in a half. Your cousin is a wreck, hasn’t slept in idk how long and we’re all about to snap. The hacker is remote accessing all her devices and every time we change passwords etc they go right in and change them again. Moving and deleting folders, taking screen shots while you’re sitting at the computer you name it. We’ve exhausted every effort and spent thousands we don’t have on programs, IT guys etc and still we are being compromised. Any help would be appreciated.”

Update: Additional text

I found a guy from a company in wake forest and he’s been no help at all and has only caused us more stress. He actually texted me the other day and said our hacker is now hacking him. lol

    OK from the first paragraph. Use mfa or authentication.

    This all seems ridiculous or you’re over exaggerating. No hacker has this much information unless it was there for them.

    Use mfa. Your TV, asks if devices can access. Log into your main internet admin usually like 10.0.0.1 and see what devices are connected. Remove suspicious ones and re add, change your password.
