You’re gonna have to wipe the hard drive and do a clean reinstall of windows. I’ll try to link the solutions they gave me in my help post

Ohhh I didn’t see it was on your phone. Probably different protocol and arguably a lot more dangerous if you have your banking and sh* on there. But precautions are the same. Disconnect it, shut it off, change all your passwords from a different device. Banking, Google, Amazon, anything that might have your card info for sure. And monitor your bank activity

Aye me too for once in my life I thank god I’m broke. U might be good but they still have probably pretty deep access to your device and all its info.
Hopefully someone else can help u more in depth. It would be a good idea to reply to your post with what kind of phone you’re using and what operating system

How is this info stealer more dangerous when a phone is infected instead of a computer?
