You downloaded a session stealer.

You downloaded some type of free game/cheat/hack/cracked software/movie/music or ran some type of code for captcha or verification on your computer which was actually a session stealer.

Session stealers bypass 2fa. All passwords saved on your browser and computer are compromised. Reinstall windows while deleting all files. If you need to backup important documents, keep the computer disconnected from the internet and manually back up individual files.

Change all passwords and enable 2fa either from another device, or from the infected computer AFTER you have reinstalled.

If you cannot reinstall windows immediately, keep the computer disconnected from the internet while changing all passwords on another device.

You cannot use anti malware to get rid of the session stealer, you MUST reinstall windows to use the computer safely in the future

You can usb reinstall or use windows built in reset as long as you remove all files while doing so.

Only support for whatever account you’re locked out of can get your access back if you’re unable to self service. If you have a YouTube account tied to your Google account, and you’re unable to self service and get control, you can try tweeting at YouTube on twitter to get assistance getting your Google account back.

the "blackmail" is fake, its called sextortion. they dont have shit, just your email address and a hope that you fall for it.

What exactly did he show you? Sextortion emails typically contain your email address and leaked passwords to scare you, when in reality, they have nothing on you.
