Numerous user reports have indicated that unknown third parties are taking control of PCs and trying to steal money, through services like PayPal or eBay. Needless to say, this looks bad. Teamviewer has denied the allegations, but something's definitely going on. Dozens of Reddit users are flooding the /r/teamviewer forum looking for advice, and one of my personal friends asked my advice after reporting something very similar.
