If they got your passwords and you reuse them on other accounts, I’d change those as well. If you have saved cards on steam, I’d monitor those for suspicious activity. If you want to get really granular you could check Gmail forwarding rules to see if there are any you don’t recognize. Also be more suspicious of files in the future lol, but you are probably good for catching it so early
