So I barely slept last night from being sick and 2 coughing and crying kids. I got woken up by amazon calling about some gyro-chopter thing and I could barely understand them. They called like 6 times before they stopped.
Found out that someone had ordered a bunch of gift cards and the drone and some other stuff. I was able to cancel most of it. Amazon was very helpful doing that. So I was chatting with amazon by online chat and all of a sudden I had to reboot the chat window, then there was something on there I didn't type. I dismissed it figuring it was a glitch, and it happened again. Now the text was very weird, and now a third time that basically told me to fu-k off. Now I have built a lot of computers from scratch and been hacked before so I should have known what was going on, but I was sick with a headache and more. Then it finally clicked in and then my desktop background changed to a skull and cross bones. Then I pulled my wifi adapter and that came to an end. I figured out that all they had access to was remote desktop by how everything was ordered as they deleted emails on my gmail account from amazon and emptied the trash, but I have ALL emails to my gmail auto copy to another backup email just for this reason.
I knew that the remote desktop was a bad thing from windows, but after reading up on articles, its something heavily exploited. So everyone should disable it if you dont need it.
