Falsely Claims: Hacker used my personal information to subscribe to McAfee
Remote Access Software: UltraViewer (Nickname: “Connecting Partner,” ID: 70984220/USER-PC) and ConnectWise from helpe8.top (Nickname: “Service Area”)
The incredibly-impatient bhenchod, who was likely working next to his child, was too deaf to even remotely connect to my virtual machine through UltraViewer and instead asked me to download ConnectWise from helpe8.top, which I refused by falsely claiming the site was blocked by my ISP.
- Once he was able to remotely connect to my virtual machine through UltraViewer, he attempted to install ConnectWise from helpe8.top on the grounds that it was being done by his “suppoat team.”
- He then attempted to view my browser history and personal files before asking if I do online banking. I told him I do not and he attempted to restart my computer.
Yeah, he went through my browser history as well:)
