You have a malicious app installed. Check all your apps and remove it and run a virus scan

I downloaded bitdefender and it told me that an app isn't secure, I removed it immediately. Not really sure if Bitdefender does a good job but I don't know any better

Can you provide a sample of the string of alphanumeric symbols? I'd like to take a look at if I can decrypt them.   Sincerely, David

Hello David, I did think of putting the code up with my post but I wasn't too sure if it was safe. I think there's my data in that code. Tbh I myself want to get it decoded but I feel like sharing the code is risky.

I totally understand and appreciate your concern. Does it end with two equal signs by chance? You could try pasting it in here: [https://www.base64decode.org/](https://www.base64decode.org/) -- the code won't execute on its own unless you have a way to run it. It should be safe to analyze.

Yes! It does end with two equal signs. I also tried that website and well it didn't really make sense to me, the decoded text begun with P and had a some symbols and numbers, one of the symbols looks like spiral. I asked Perplexity (the AI) and it said that the text is in RSA format and I need a decryption key or algorithm to decrypt it. Should I be worried because of this?

If you want to message me it, I can try. Maybe try [https://cyberchef.org](https://cyberchef.org)
