Hey everyone, a couple weeks ago I got a ransomware and had to trash my whole pc, I made a post about that

Somehow I managed to retain access to all my stuff, be it gmail or accounts like blizzard etc
The thing is, if before I was getting the regular spam mail etc, now most of my mail accounts are being subscribed to random websites, mostly not even in my own language, besides how frustrating this is, i dont understand the purpose of it? What’s the goal in making an account with my data and my email on say, a russian clothing store? I dont understand this, but is very worrying
Does anyone have any insight on why criminals might be doing this?Also, ever since the ransomware thing, the phishing stuff i receive has increased exponentilly, and I also get daily access attempts on my hotmail, unsuccesfull thanks god, always from different locations and with different ips, but that might be a VPN, but then again, if it were a single person why persist in trying to hack me? So I think my personal data must be in some sort of hacker forum or something, and I am seriously becoming paranoid about this shit, do you have any tips for me?
