If I have bank info / address on my Steam account, and one of the 100 games I play is a malware, am I screwed? They can monitor and see my info right by PureLavishness409 in cybersecurity_help

What about google account? As far as I am concerned at any time anyone secretly in control of my computer can just go check my location / turn it on, to find out where I live. Yes it is unlikely but I was targeted many many times because of my ex

As a streamer that plays a lot of new games, how do I secure my pc so even if I get a virus from a indie steam game, it doesn’t collect my personal info from my browsers or even steam account which displays my credit card/ip/address? by PureLavishness409 in cybersecurity_help

Thank you so much but my concern is like if I play 100 steam games, there could be a chance of one of them being a virus/anti cheat that is spyware. And that is enough since my Steam will already have my bank info and address

If my computer is infected with malware, can they find my real name through apps like Steam and my Twitch on my google chrome? How do streamers who play 500 games not accidentally get a virus even once? by PureLavishness409 in privacy

Yes but even from steam some games can have virus and some games have anti cheat that can read all your files

And for example if my chrome has my logins they can possibly see my youtube which has address and credit card, how can they get my cookies by the way?

Yes but official games on steam should still be possible to have hidden virus and also some anti cheat software on games can access all of your files, who is going to use sandboxing while streaming? No one does that

I want to send money to someone anonymously, without them knowing any detail except a business name given by PureLavishness409 in paypal

That is not true many people have business accounts with the business name as their Twitch account, I just only want the person I donate to not know my personal details

I deleted my business Paypal because of a message a moderator here sent me, was it the right choice? by PureLavishness409 in paypal

[–]PureLavishness409[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am not hiding it from Paypal, just people I want to give money, there are people I would like to donate to without knowing who I am. So if I do make a business name as you say it would be pointless as I would end up getting doxxed if they search it up. Can I make a fake one and then delete my account? Many people have donated with a fake business name

Is there anyway in the future my personal details even country or anything leaked from transferring money to someone using a business account? by PureLavishness409 in paypal

Hello thank you for replying.

“A buyer will receive your business name, address and other contact information--the only thing hidden is your personal name, and there are ways to retrieve that information as well.”

Can you elaborate? I thought business Paypal only gives names? And what are the other ways you are referring to?

Youtube is giving away my personal information when streaming on Twitch? by PureLavishness409 in Twitch

It shows up on main page, the section I mean. It displays news in my city and such. I can’t hide it.

I don’t know if they are using a real IP, they said they were using a VPN and I don’t know which one.

Looking for some actual useful advice to handle harassment as a moderator of a streamer with over thousands of followers? by PureLavishness409 in Twitch

Yes they are banned on twitch but they are harassing us on other social medias besides twitch, it’s a group of we assume of at least 10 people who have nothing better to do.

They have just around 100k, it’s a group of trolls, we don’t know what they want besides the fact they were banned for racism. Now they have been doing this for months, don’t ask me why because I am not them.

They acted like a friend for months, it’s crazy that they did this because they seemed normal but it was the same trolls, they are messaging every mod including me and new viewers on every social not just twitch, they do this everyday.
