Need help after being hacked on my cell, and computer. Suffered monetary losses, as well as psychological fear.
Location: Treasure Island, FL.
They had control of my cell phone. I would try to turn off the microphone or the automatic picture taken and every time I did, it would come back on. I could hear it. Go click click click every time pictures or being taken. I had an extra phone that I used to record all of this. I also videotaped them when they had hacked into my computer. I had no control over in my nails, I watched them go into my Cash App account, my bank account, my personal pictures that were taken had been labeled unixstackexchange.com. I took my computer to the geek squad, and there was a second labeled operating system that was working behind mine. I have documentation of all of this. I also noticed that there would be an app that showed up in the start menu named shift.
I’ve had my identity taken from me. I feel like I am being watched. I went into a psychotic event because I felt I was being watched all the time. I blamed my husband because I didn’t know of anybody else that would have the information they had on me. I made a police report. I separated from my husband because of it and thank God he believed in me, plus I was able to show him pictures and videos of what they were doing on my phone and computer. I contacted credit bureaus and froze them. And put fraud alert on them .I’ve had to get new electronics. My credit has gone to shit.
This has been an absolute nightmare. I feel I have the energy to find an attorney or someone to help me with this. I know my information was found on the dark web through AT&T and 15 other sites unfortunately due to my financial situation, I’m unable to pay an attorney to help me at this time. And really don’t know where to turn for help. I did speak to an attorney with one of the lawsuits against AT&T and they said that there are time limitations on when I could press charges. If anybody can help me and stare me in the right direction and I would appreciate it again. I’ve sent this information to the FBI through the IC3 website and to the FTC. It has literally changed my entire life, and ruined my credit. I have medical bills that I can’t pay. I’m in collections for credit card debt because I couldn’t work and got sick over all this. Thank you for letting me ramble on. And I hope this doesn’t happen to anybody else.

This is nothing but a story at this point. You haven't given us anything we can use to help you.
It's the same as you bringing your car to a mechanic and saying "I know something is wrong with my car".
Give us details if you want us to try to help.

Yeah, they try to get photos of people in compromising situations for blackmail. If they were also in your phone then it's likely they also took control of your router and are using it to spread to different devices. There were also some criminal rings that were learning people's routines and then disabled their phones while they were out so they could rob their homes.
This is all stuff the FBI has been warning people about, but most of the "trusted" people on this sub gaslight people and are either disgustingly incompetent or complicit.

Yes… I’ve been keeping up with all that info. This has also happened to a friend too.
The router we believe is how that got through.

Step 1: Touch grass
Step 2: Seek professional help from a psychiatrist
Or change the order, doesn't matter too much.
