How To Counter A Hack by san316(m): 7:42am On Feb 10, 2016 |
Hello geeky geeks Please I need your help. Some scammers sent me a link in the form of an attachment. I mistakenly opened it meaning I have exposed my phone to them. I don't have money in my bank account just yet but I want to know how I can prevent them from hacking my account. My salary will be paid soon and I may be exposed. Please help. |

san316: Did you open the link with your phone ? If yes, did it install an app on it? If you did, un install the app, or else nothing to fear. It's not that easy to steal bank info via mail |

Did you open the link with you phone? If yes, clear your browser cache,cookies,and everything clearable. If you perform further action after opening the link in a browser, then tell us. |

Use a virus free phone/computer and change all your passwords. Then don't login in to anything using that phone until you are sure the phone has been sterilized. |
