For some time I have been "threatened" by a hacker who has accessed my pc with a trojan.
His threats have been to publish my photos to my "contacts" unless I pay him bitcoins.
Some of my photos are of SWMBO in "beach" poses which she would not necessarily want broadcasting.
I have removed those photos from my online account.
I use microsoft defender as my main anti virus protection but it seems he can bypass this as trojans are installed at various intervals.
I receive emails from him at regular intervals purporting to be from me with suggestions to view various photos. Each of these emails I report as spam/phishing and do mot open them.
I now run a regular anti virus checker & the trojan reappears from time to time.
Any ideas how to get this lowlife stopped completely?
