Hi, I picked up a keylogger i think it might be from what i have gathered, when i tried to download a keyboard app for my pc and remotely link it up with my Android Tablet.
i very shortly realised something was wrong and did all i knew of at the time, to rid myself of this software and i restored my pc and so forth.
I think it might have been that very night, it couldve been automatic software, but felt like someone on the other end was messing with me, so in the process of talking to people more tech savvy about me about what to do on facebooks messenger,
frequencies came out of nowhere through my tablet and next minute, This radio like voice was broadcasted through my tablet while my screen stayed the same, it was very very confronting talking about a lot of stuff that felt very specific to me, almost like i was being personally targetted, its hard to remember it all, i even used the messenger camera to film a few clips of myself freaking out,
it proceeded to mention things like it knew me and how to play on that, but then it mentioned, how all us young people will get together and waste our lives drinking alcohal at OUR LOCAL CLUB. it mentioned this place by name.
i am young, and im very much anti conformist, i hate that place and all the people who go there. social stigmas and so on.
now if this is merely a keylogger, why and how,
I Had personal credentials on the tablet before factory resetting it, and even my mother had used a site with saved passwords and her credit car details up on there, i know, very stupid and ameteur but im no tech wizz or ever thought id experience that so i was naive
ive done everything i can for muy pc and anti virus on my tablet too, but
if i may be superstitious, it felt like who ever crafted that had a more important message he was relating to me in a very benevolent way,
so what pathways would anyone suggest i pursue after this? i would like to know if the logger is still around despite the anti virus’ and spy bots and so on….
it didn’t just feel like theft, or simple mockery, it was deviantly intellectual
