Confirm a Remote-Access Scammer Got Into Your Banking Device

    If anyone connected via AnyDesk, TeamViewer, Quick Assist, or similar, banking on that device is unsafe until it is cleaned.

    What to do

      • List every remote-access app installed in the last 14 days (AnyDesk, TeamViewer, Quick Assist, Zoho Assist, Chrome Remote Desktop)
      • Check connection logs in those apps for unknown session IDs and timestamps
      • Look for unfamiliar admin or user accounts on the device
      • Check browser-saved passwords and crypto wallets — assume they have been read
