Torpig Protection / Removal


Recommended Posts

Hi

I recently was told by Yahoo (or I think was yahoo who turned out to be Gemini Techies) that I had torpig. Well the Gemini co turned out to be scammers so beware. But now this has been brought to my attention cam Malwaybytes protect or even remove the torpig?

 

Iam running the newest paid for home version of malywarebytes on one of my pc's and a fee version on the other. Neither has ever found anything as of today's date.

 

I believe here is some info on these low lifes

Hello and Welcome...

Seems you were a victim of a well known scam.  If you paid these folks any money, I would call your credit card company and cancel the payment, and also call your bank and have the card replaced.  If you allowed these folks to connect to your computer, you may want to have someone check your computer for possible malware.  It can be done by a paid professional, or you can have it done here at the forum for free... Simply follow the instructions in this pinned topic here... I'm infected - What do I do now?

Thanks

Yea they wanted echeck (said Credit card would be too dangerous over a non secure PC) which I gave them the info and as of today it had not been cashed so I did cancel the check. It was strange as I was having a issue with a new cell phone, I called the manufacture and they could not help so they put me in contact with Yahoo who told me I had the infection and said they could put me in touch with a company that could , what was strange they were able to do this while I was online. Now I look back  very strange.

They installed the remote software and did ask my yahoo pass word and my phones as well as check number and routing number and sent me a PDF receipt for my e check.

 

I did remove all of there software and then changed my yahoo password. These jokers also switched my wired pc to wireless and uninstalled maylarebytes. I have since went back to wired and reinstalled malwarebytes. Also I do have zone alarm paid version running all the times.

 

I believe that I have covered just about everything and my yahoo address has nothing to do with my banking email address for that account.

 

If there is some freeware on here that I could use to double check my pc that would be great!

 

TIA

The fact that you gave them a check number, account number and routing number is not good.  I would talk to your bank, and more than likely I would close the bank account and create a new one.  They have all the details then need to start taking your money in your account.

I had a customer with a similar story and they took over $20,000 US dollars from their account.

Have spoken with the bank and the echeck was not tendered and they have blocked that company, cost $30 money well spent!

 

Just ran the updated MBAM here are the results;;

(There is no automatic fix for files that do not pass verification.)

You can leave those files alone.... if you are worried that your infected you need to post in the right section for help...

Simply follow the instructions in this pinned topic here... I'm infected - What do I do now?

Basically you need to start a new topic in the correct section HERE and post your logs there for review.

Have ran MLB and Zone Alarm as well as Scf /scannow and all looks good. Is there any way manually to remove those files?  I was on the Win Seven Forum and one reply told me to run the Win7 repair disc which I did and it just said it found some issue in the startup and fixed that.

 

Then ran the FarBar tool again and those files still showed up. I have read on the farbar tool but just cant understand how to use it???

Please do the above.  Help can only be given in that section.

If your only concern is to remove these files in this list, you can not/and should not remove these files, it will render your computer unusable.

That being said, I see you now started a new topic HERE which is the correct section for malware removal.  They will review your logs and see if there is anything that needs to be removed, and guide you from there.
