Your computer was infected with my malware, RAT (Remote Administration Tool), your browser wasn’t updated / patched, in such case it’s enough to just visit some website where my iframe is placed to get automatically infected, if you want to find out more – Google: “Drive-by exploit”. My malware gave me full access and control over your computer, meaning, I got access to all your accounts (see password above) and I can see everything on your screen, turn on your camera or microphone and you won’t even notice about it. I collected all your private data and I RECORDED YOU (through your webcam) SATISFYING YOURSELF! After that I removed my malware to not leave any traces. I can send the video to all your contacts, post it on social network, publish it on the whole web, including the darknet, where the sick people are, I can publish all I found on your computer everywhere!

This insidious malware program is a rather new one and the security researchers are still gathering information about it.

In contrast to other threats like Ransomware, Rootkits, Spyware and so on which typically have some very specific uses and can’t really do anything beyond their initial task, a Trojan could be used as a metaphorical malware Swiss army knife meaning that the virus could carry out various criminal tasks and processes in the computer in an attempt to achieve different goals for its creators.
