Hello. Someone recently was hacking into my computer, Gmail, Facebook  and Paypal accounts. I couldn't install antivirus.  I was denied the use of a bank card in the shop.Later I learned that my bank card payments were suspended because someone illegally bought CDkeys using my Paypal money. I couldn't login into my Paypal account, since I'm being asked to use authenticator app now also, hacker made it impossible for me to login. Noticed in Gmail deleted messages confirming unauthorized payments, even later I could see hacker deleting messages while I was even logged in. Instead I had to use my other account to write here. Luckily I managed to  change the password, blocked the bank card and the bank told they would return the money. How to block this Paypal account, retrieve left money or access it? Could it be a SIM swap attack and what I should do about it?
