Hackers are able to remotely control devices that had TeamViewer installed.

 

Team Viewer's DNS servers were hijacked and the clients believed the fake server, being the method of the attack. Some users have reported that a lot of unauthorized transactions have occurred on Ebay, PayPal, and many other purchases, with thousands of dollars already lost to the hackers. It is highly suggested to uninstall TeamViewer on any device it was installed on, and check your logs to see if you were accessed.

 

You can also check to see if your account was logged into.
