| Hackers take down spyware outfit Forced to close Polish spyware LetMeSpy is borked and the company says it will shut down after a June data breach wiped its servers, including its huge trove of data stolen from thousands of victims’ phones. In a notice on its website, LetMeSpy confirmed the “permanent shutdown” of the spyware service by the end of August. The notice said LetMeSpy is blocking users from logging in or signing up with new accounts. A separate notice on LetMeSpy’s former login page, which no longer functions, confirmed earlier reports that the hacker who breached the spyware operation also deleted the data on its servers. “The breach consisted of unauthorized access to the LetMeSpy website’s database, downloading and at the same time deleting data from the website by the author of the attack,” the notice reads. https://fudzilla.com/news/57369-hack...spyware-outfit |
