I use a Web browser with a WhatsApp extension, chatting with her she sent me a link to a website to see if I can see the website, she said “I cannot see it, please help me” I did it and the site was visible for me and I notified to her. I think that was the way she used to hack me, I don’t know.
Starting from that day she started to tell me indirects about the info I saw in the sites I visited, I always suspected that she hacked me and she monitored my Web activity, besides that I’m almost sure she recorded all of our videocalls through WhatsApp to show videos of me speaking about others, I lost one friendship because of that.
I formated my pc several times and even with that she could hacked me again and again, this person is toxic is pure envy and gossiping and I want to leave her behind. She asked me how many hard drives I have on my pc and kept telling me indirects about my Web activity, that scared me a lot.
So I stopped speaking to her and today I’m going to change my phone number.
Regarding the hacking I did this and I want to ask for advice to see what else can I do:
-
My pc is connected through ethernet cable to a router me and flatmates use, I changed the router password.
-
I formated again my pc I reinstalled all my programs and installed the free versions of avira and avast.
-
Today I’m going to use the Internet data of my phone to change all my passwords.
-
I will run a full scan of my hard drives using avast and avira.
-
Probably I will pay one year of norton antivirus plus.
Is everything OK,? What else can I do? What if I disassemble the pc and format it again this time with only one hard disk while scanning the other hard disk in another pc?
i dont think she hacked you, theres a lot of social engineering ongoing and with enough information she can run some tools like sherlock which searchs for your username on other sites, thats how she probably knew which sites you visited, if you really think you got hacked just reinstall windows and youre fine but thats very unlikely. Most likely placebo effect
