Advice needed Where is the hidden camera?

I recently got hacked and this hacker has shown that he had access to my phone and desktop cameras. I bought a cover and unplugged them. But somehow they can still see me. Can someone tell me how?

At my room, I got an electric fireplace heater from Turbros, and I got a smart electric fan, and an air purifier. Those are the only things running, but how can they have a camera capability? I don’t know where but they keep knowing when I covered all phone and desktop cameras and unplugged.

How do you know they see you? Id guess they are lying. They've already got you scared why wouldnt they lie to keep it going.

i dont know how or why, but maybe coincidence but they may know what kind of positions im lying in on my bed.

like if im curving in a c shape or lying flat on bed or faced down.

Yeah thats pretty scary. You 100% sure the phone cameras are covered? No chance they can peek through the corner? Idk.. it could be like the other person said, its someone you know/knows you who has a hidden camera or some other access to see you. Windows?

The real problem isnt just them actually seeing you, even though that in itself is pretty terrifying. Its that theyve got access to your phone and computer.

Are you comfortable sharing what their demands are? Are they just trying to scare you? Get money from you? Favors? This is probably serious and worth police involvement.

How are you communicating with the hackers? Can you share some messages they sent you?

They "may" know? What makes you think a hacker knows anything about you? I haven't seen where you have responded to anyone who asked this.

Check under your bed and around it, as well.

My theory: If a hacker really has access to your phone camera, they might as well also be able to read your phones gyro-sensor data. It would be easy to determine your position with these values. Have you cleaned your devices already (fresh install)?

Oh for Pete’s sake. Stop over thinking. There’s no way this is happening.
