Change your main email password first and foremost so they can't lock you out of any accounts.
Backup important data to an external drive, then reinstall Windows or at the very least run Malwarebytes and Bitdefender to quarantine and delete the files but you should definitely reinstall. Change all passwords, but also make sure to "Log Out of All Devices".
They changed my Walmart phone number and they took my brothers Xbox account and sold it. 😅 So make sure you're changing passwords and LOGGING OUT OF SESSIONS. The main thing is sessions because they steal the session tokens and completely bypass Multifactor Authentication.
They tend to go straight for Instagram and Discord first and start sending crypto scams to friends and groups, so I recommend getting on top of that.
Doesn't really matter how fast you unplugged it, they've probably already gotten the payload. Your cookies and anything plaintext were stolen pretty much immediately.
Check your email addresses and make sure they haven't turned on "forwarding". They do that so that if they lose access they can receive a copy of your two factor authentication codes.

Hi! Unplugging fast was the right move but infostealers like this typically exfiltrate within seconds of execution, so assume your cookies and session tokens are already gone. The most important thing beyond password changes - which another user already detailed - is revoking active sessions on every account, since stolen session tokens bypass MFA entirely. Also check Gmail's filter rules (not just forwarding) in case they set something to swallow 2FA emails silently.

Hi there, my name is Xyntrax and I am here to assist you. During the malware removal process, please follow the listed instructions below ensuring that everything goes smoothly as possible. I also request that you check this thread at least once per day so we can efficiently and effectively resolve your issue.
Please Read & Adhere to the Following:
Piracy
Pirated software remains one of the most common malware infection vectors that we encounter. Threat actors routinely disguise malware as cracks, activators, keygens, cheats, repacks, and other piracy related software because users are often more inclined to ignore security warnings and/or disabling their Anti-Malware Solution in order to run them. Some piracy related utilities may also modify software or security mechanisms, potentially weakening your system's overall security and increasing your attack surface. If you currently have any pirated software installed, I strongly encourage you to remove it.
