I just found a trojan on my pc. What now?

[IMPERIUS]

Hi!

 

Malwarebytes found a Trojan.Banker (what is this, can I call it just a trojan or does that .Banker mean something?) in my trash bin. Idk where I got it and I won't bother with it now.

 

Anyways, its deleted now. What now? What could be the damage done? What to expect?

Generally means its designed to steal banking logins and details.

Sounds like it steals your bank account details and makes transactions or some shit. no idea, i'd be scared shitless if i found that on my pc.

I know that. Luckily I didn't log into my bank acc, only gmail, ltt, fb and other social stuff. What can he do with that?

You should be fine if Malwarebytes quarantined it for you. If you have another anti virus like Nod32 or something you can try to run a full in-depth scan to see if anything is left.

How does Tiny Banker work?

 

1. 1. The user visits a website infected with the Rig Exploit kit (Flash or Silverlight exploit).
2. 2. If the user’s system is vulnerable, the exploit executes a malicious code that downloads and executes the malware payload, Tinba Trojan.
3. 3. When the computer is infected and the user tries to log in to one of the targeted banks, webinjects come into effect and the victim is asked to fill out a form with his/her personal data.
4. 4. If he/she confirms the form, the data is sent to the attackers. This includes credit card information, address, social security number, etc. An interesting field is “Mother’s Maiden Name”, which is often used as a security question to reset a password.

change all your passwords just to be safe it's probably nothing to worry about though as long as you didn't log in to banking ^^^

I don't know if it quarantined it, how to check that?

Well first change the passwords for those.

It does not really matter anymore... if it's in your bin it didn't quarantined it anyways IMO. Change your passwords and do a system scan.

I didn't scan my pc for maybe a month or so, maybe even two. This is bad, very bad, isn't it?

After you ran the scan did you click on quarantine on the bottom or just closed the window?

Change your passwords and check your bank statement you'll be fine.

Well if you're account ain't hacked yet, it's not bad. The hacker/virus maker or whatever you wanna call him/it , just didn't change your passwords yet. So I would change the passwords of the accounts I used, do a system scan, if find viruses re-change the passwords again.

 

This is why I like Bitdefender Wallet, eh, .

Scan again!

I'm a super paranoid type so I'd recommend backing up everything necessary then proceed to format and do a fresh install. Also good to call your bank or credit card company and let then know the situation so they change all your info including the bank account or credit card number. It would be nice to let all your friends or family who might have used your computer computer know about this so they can do the same.
