What to do
- Check your PC if you opened the NIKKE Windows launcher during the period identified in the reporting, and close the launcher first.
- Follow the NIKKE removal instructions published by the publisher carefully.
- Change your account passwords from a clean device rather than the possibly compromised PC.
- If a cryptocurrency wallet or its recovery phrase may have been exposed, move funds from a clean device to a newly created wallet with a new recovery phrase.
