| Couple's intimate moment caught on hacked webcam |
SHOCKING cyber attack on woman's webcam as photos are taken and posted on Facebook.
Internet users are being warned about the security of their webcams after a recent attack exposed their vulnerability.
The couple, from Toronto, Canada, immediately called police who are now looking into the incident. They say the investigation is ongoing and the computer has been seized for analysis. Speaking about the incident, officer Scott Mills warned: “The best thing you can do is close your laptop after you’ve used it. "Don’t just kind of fall asleep with your laptop open and put it over to the side, “Definitely more awareness could help, it’s definitely possible that your webcam can get hacked, so you need to be aware of that but I don’t think it’s time to hit the panic button or anything like that.”
Hackers managed to access a young couple's computer web camera, using it to spy and take pictures of them.
The unsuspecting pair were snapped whilst they cuddled and watched movies on Netflix.
Chelsea Clark, who was the victim of the attack, says she was horrified after receiving the intimate photos of herself via a fake Facebook account.
Clark says her blood ran cold when she logged into Facebook to see the pictures that had been snapped during the previous evening.
The spine-chilling Facebook post included a number of photos and the words, "Really,cute couple".
Speaking to Newstalk1010 Ms Clark said: "They were so freakishly intimate,"
"It felt so invasive, like someone was in my house with me."
“What a terrifying notion. It was a really bizarre thing to receive those messages and it really took a second to be like, ‘Oh my
"God, that’s what this means, that’s the implication of receiving this message is someone was just watching us,'”
