He told click on a link. I have not clicked and immediately turned off the PC. Am I at high risk of being hacked? Example: paying bills Online passwords or hacked. Thank you in advance for any help.
Yes. I think you've already been attacked. A Trojan virus can do almost anything. They can collect your e-mail and send everyone on it more viruses or simply input basic pirates of new email addresses. It can also read files and transmit critical information. He could also play your keyboard and embrace all that the passwords of account numbers, or other thing to their own servers to be sold to the highest bidder. Do yourself a favor and check that you have a real virus protector in place and maintain. NE NOT use a free registry scrubbers or antivirus tools so many think. Some of them are OK, but too much of themselves are evilware and most are fairly fragile. Some other implants actually spyware, adware or even viruses or trojans on your system and do things well worse – much worse. I have not tested the top rating dozen or so serious antivirus programs (of the many dozen out there) but PCWorld has; then Consumer Reports. AVG is the lowest-rated. I do not depend on first hand accounts of end-users and amateurs but instead, search for the views of _professionals_ computer whose job is to analyze these programs _essential_. Using a free antivirus program is like buying drugs against cancer that guy on a street corner … View http://www.pcworld.com/article/124475-1/article.html or subscribe to Consumer Reports – I have done for over 30 years and not miss any number.
