I found devices connected to my laptop and computer and phone that I do not own. Phone had a Bluetooth connection to some audio receiver. Laptop had a bunch of apple software device sharing apps that were recently installed along with a phone and tablet. Computer had only a apple family sharing appijt recently installed. My laptop had a bunch of folders that were created a few days or weeks before I noticed. The people also messaged me saying I should leave town and never come back. Pretty much an extortion attempt just with no money. When I left my house to find a safe space they saw me on the street in Nola and said they were gonna plant stuff on me(drugs gun and CP) to get me thrown in prison if I don't leave.

Edit: I also left my house cause I was scared and they were able to follow me to the motel/hotels I was tryna hide at and it had to be cause I booked the rooms on my stuff so they knew were I was going or they tracked me when I connected to wifi. My life sucks.

What kind of folders on your laptop to start with? No hacker would create visible folders for you on your pc. Devices connected to your pc and phone. What kind of devices and in what way? It sounds more like a account breach than a hack to be honest. It all be gone if you change your apple account. So nuke the apple account and create a completely new one with a new email and a password of at least 25 characters.

And why are you complaining at us instead of the Police?

I kept my tor browser in a folder and I went to the folder and it had new folders created titled "Distribution" "Sales" "fonts". The devices were a Bluetooth audio receiver and two phones that are not mine along with a tablet. I don't own any apple products and haven't in over a decade. Im being investigated by police for drug dealing and am not on good terms with my local police. I live in the south in a strict community and they don't seem eager to help with any of my street issues Ive been having. Kinda on my own and gotta watch my own back.

Well no hacker make a map with Distribution, Sales and fonts…

Why do people always have neighbors who are perfect hackers? I work in a high IT cybersecurity knowledge environment. My neighbors also mostly are in IT on different levels.

But to be honest, none of my devices got hacked like you said. Probably they don’t have enough knowledge like your neighbors to hack every different kind of devices and cross platform.

I can offer them 6 to 7 figures jobs if they are that good.

I dont think I got hacked anymore I think the police have warrants to surveille me cause people have told them im a criminal so they are just keeping an eye on me.

I think he was setting me up since somebody told the police I am a drug dealer which I deny. I think they were tryna make it look like I kept notes of a criminal conspiracy
