When the mouse moves on its own and antivirus finds nothing, it's often a remote-access trojan using signed loaders or legitimate remote tools.

If you double-clicked a 'disciplinary notice' archive shared in a group chat and suspect a Silver Fox Trojan infection, your first move isn't to run antivirus—it's to disconnect from the network, force-log out all PC sessions from a trusted device and change passwords, have finance staff unplug USB banking keys and pause payments, then warn the group through other channels. This article covers the emergency response order, how to tell if you're actually infected, why a clean antivirus scan isn't reassuring, and when to bring in professionals.
Which Account Passwords to Change After Finding a Silver Fox Trojan: Don't Change Them on That Computer
