You wasted your time installing any AV software. The site you went to through Google simply redirected you to another site where the entire idea was to get you to install a fake Flash update. Had you simply deleted the fake Flash download instead of installing it, you wouldn't have needed to do anything else. Never, ever install Flash from anywhere other than directly from Adobe.
Dec 17, 2020 Avast Security (for Mac), AVG AntiVirus for Mac, Avira Free Antivirus for Mac, and Sophos Home Free (for Mac) are totally free for personal use, although Sophos technically limits you to three. Avira Free Security Suite got high marks from our testers for its ability to stop threats. Kaspersky Security Cloud Free and Avast Free Antivirus 2020 also performed well.

No MalwareBytes didn't stop it, nor would any AV software because like virtually all Mac malware to date, it was a Trojan. Which is software you choose to install. No AV software can know what it is until you run it. And it is of course too late, then.
How to play mystery train. I downloaded an app from the App Store to get rid of malware to no avail.
All AV software, in particular from the App Store, is completely useless. Five nights at freddys online.
Get rid of Bitdefender. It will not help you one bit. If you install another Trojan, it will go right through. Keep MalwareBytes for Mac. It's job is not preventative (mostly), but to clean up after the fact. The full version of MBAM does two main things in real time: it checks for updates and installs them automatically, and it watches for ransomware activity. When it sees an app trying to encrypt files, MBAM will do what it can to shut down the app as quickly as possible. Notice even that is 'after the fact'. It can't know a Trojan you installed is ransomware until it's active.

There are no viruses attacking OS X/macOS, and running any anti-virus tool is both a waste of money, and has been proven in multiple community posts to adversely effect the built-in security facilities within macOS, and the normal behavior of the operating system. So do not purchase, or install any anti-virus tool on you Mac, regardless of the vendor scare tactics to do so.
Easiest film editing software. That said, there is a growing number of non-virus, malware that can invade your Mac from the wrong click of a web site button, download aggregation sites, and other sources that can impact the normal operation of your Mac too. I avoid these sources of malware, but still personally use the free Malwarebytes tool to check for them. If any are found, it will offer to remove them. Currently, Malwarebytes does not remain resident, and continuously check for malware, though it will offer that in a future update.
