Hello everyone, I don't know if this won't be deleted by the person who attacked my computer, but at least giving it a try is better than nothing.
I was attacked by a malware just now, a really serious one, I lost my PayPal and I'm terrified if I'll lose more... that person has access to everything, I can legit see what they're doing and there's nothing I can do to save them from doing this. I just wanted to ask you to 1. in case i send anything strange, ESPECIALLY LINKS to you, please do not click them and please ignore it!!!!!! 2. I really apologize for any delays at work but I'm afraid i will spend at least a few days on trying to fix this. Thank you for understanding. I try to be as vague as possible because that person is just literally watching everything I do now, but I promise I will do everything I can to get back to you on commissions ASAP

Do you have any idea how it happened?
You're not dumb, this stuff happens to everyone! It still sucks to have happen to you, though. You're such a nice guy, you don't deserve this. ;n;
For the future, consider installing PrivacyBadger and NoScript extensions in your browser, NoScript basically disables Javascript on a webpage so you only get the raw, non-interactive content of that page, it is very useful when you are accessing sites you don't trust. PrivacyBadger is an extension that blocks known web trackers.
