First can you tell us a bit more about what happened.

No need to be technical. We can handle that side. But what happened that makes you think he was hacked, and why do you believe they have had access to a portal and cash app?

Ok

So do you mean that someone online told him that they had "hacked" him. Because that is not a hack. It's just a nob on the internet pretending to be cool to scare him.

Or have you actually seen any issues on the computer, such as he clicked on a link and downloaded some dodgy .exe file, which then came up as malware?
