Today I was in a Zoom call, right after it ended I got distracted for a couple seconds just to see that someone was browsing on my pc trying to get into my Paypal and bank account, as soon as I saw it I shut off the computer, then proceded to turn it on and scan for viruses. I’m pretty sure the scanner found the trojan I was looking for and so I deleted it, we’re talking about NetSupport RAT. So now I have a couple of questions: he didn’t get anything done (as far as I know) cause his action lasted for about 30 seconds at maximum, how much do I have to worry now? Is it possible that he was monitoring my screen before he took control over it? It seems such a strange coincidence that right after I get distracted after a Zoom call he enters (my camera was on too). Is eradicating the trojan enough? Is there something else I should look for to make sure they do not have access anymore? I used the pc throughout the day without encuntering anymore issues.
Unplug it from the internet, power down. Remove the hard drive and take it to get scanned. Extract important files to separate drive, scan it again to be sure the files are clean. Format old drive, put it back in the machine and reinstall your operating system. Change all your passwords, move your files back and install your software again.
