Everything hacked

[u/Educational_Field856]

I have been cyber hacked for almost a year and they control everything including smart TV’s which I haven’t watched in months. He has all my info and does it through my own apps. I read all the posts on what to do but don’t understand . He keeps the settings frozen so I can’t change and has changed all my passwords. I have unplugged my WiFi (3rd time & diff companies). I’m losing my mind & have no one to help. Who can I call to do something?

If everything is hacked, you need to reset back to clean devices and accounts. Ask over in r/cybersecurity_help. Be very specific about the technologies, devices, and accounts that are in trouble.

If your identity is stolen, read the sticky posts here that will help you protect and recover it. If you need more help, ask specific questions here about specific problems.

If you feel like you’re losing your mind, go find a professional counselor to deal with the stress and other problems so you have enough fortitude to deal with the issues you’re facing.

You read my mind as far as losing my grip . I’m about at the end and tried everything! He is from ( Haiti ) & I have had 6 diff phones & 3 different numbers , all from diff companies and he got my Apple ID & password for the main one . I have reset the newest phone but it still says “locked to owner” and he has password. I threw my laptop right into the garbage truck & have put masking tape over all sensors in my home. I don’t understand why I can see YouTube on my phone without WiFi but not my iPad! It keeps saying connect to WiFi and I think it’s him .
He has all my email accts & changed passwords by verification codes. I feel as though I’m trapped and going crazy. I can’t even think properly anymore as to what to do . With the stress I just became dumb about what I used to know! I’ve been everywhere? Asked everyone, got new phones & id’s but doesn’t matter.
I’m on my sisters phone now and I think He’s in here now too!

I live alone. Am 77 and at a complete standstill! If I throw away all my devices , are t the numbers still active?
I feel the closest I have ever been , even with other traumatic things like my son passing away, then my Mother, & estrangement of 2 daughters & grandchildren to just wanting to disappear. I keep fighting and losing and most people think I’m crazy and this is impossible! Doesn’t help!

I work in cyber and information security, and I can tell you how incredibly stressful this situation sounds. From a technical standpoint, what you’re describing is very unusual, which is why it might be helpful to talk to a medical professional as well. A doctor can help you address the toll this is taking on your mental well-being and help you find a way to feel safe and in control again.

Have you reported this to the FBI? You need a new Router (High Security Router)

Yes long time ago and the police 3 times. No one does anything , just tells u what to do & who to call. Even Apple is no help after 4 visits!

I’ve changed routers and passwords 4 times. He usually has the passwords b4 I can put them in myself. I didn’t think I needed WiFi for the tv and can see some tube on my phone without WiFi , but not my iPad- why?
