According to some reviews about the BullGuard AV it has a poor or low score on malware protection it means that your PC still infected even you are using antivirus with BullGuard.

I hope that you can use a better AV like Kaspersky I'm not promoting it but I  use it for how many years and save my PC for many malware and viruses.

For now, there is no way to recover your lost XRP the only way you can do now is to make sure your PC is clean or format your whole PC but you can't save your files from your PC as you need to install a Clean OS.

Okay so long story short.

 

I donwloaded a program without AV because i thought Windows Defender was good enough.

 

This happened around 2 months ago: Downloaded the program, ran the setup installed it and ran it. All fine. In the next 2 hours, I have gone onto my emails to find out someone was in my yahoo mailbox and tried to get into my crypto online wallets which were empty. I bought bullguard antivirus straightaway and ran scan which found viruses. I changed my passwords, reinstalled windows and changed passwords again. I thought that was it. 300 dollars gone off my paypal account, and 15 dollars used to buy GTA V off my other paypal account.  I bought Ledger Nano S and stored 20 000 xrp on it, worth £10 000. Yesterday i woke up to find out that all my ripples from ledger have been moved to this adress which i suppose is the hackers address rUF5TKP4JNyXsHWjHYVWH7ugCB6FTabM8U.

 

Also the hacker who bought the gta has used a fake passport with my name on it to send to the game provider to prove "it was me" who bought it.

 

I probably wont be able to recover my life savings will I?

will be going to police station tomorrow also if they can help?

i had sensitive files on my pc, such as letters i wrote and pictures of my driving licence.

 

what can i do to make sure this does not happen ever again, and what else can the hackers do? Is my personal information for sale on dark web? Who knew 1 small application could ruin a life...

 

i am afraid they can take all my money from my bank accounts
