Top industrialist Anil Ambani has been stripped of his financial details. At 21 years of age, this female chartered accountant had a lot of nerve to hack the leading businessman Ambani himself. She just wanted to check his income details and tax returns, police said. Unfortunately, her cyber crime was not fool proof.
The girl faces arrest, which is bailable. According to the police, there is sufficient evidence against her, never mind that she has readily confessed to the crime. The cops managed to seize the server through which the crime had been committed and found the girl too, who happens to be located in Hyderabad.
Police confirmed that the chartered accountant had hacked into the e-filing account of income tax returns belonging to Ambani. Through the account, she grabbed details of his income, tax payments over a period of time and Ambani's PAN number. To get to this data, the girl changed the e-filing account password twice.
A Mumbai-based chartered accountant firm, which files Ambani's individual tax details, received the e-mails of each password change. The first change happened on 26th June and the second was on 12th July. Cyber cell inspector Mukund Pawar is the man in charge for investigating the case. Initial probe into the matter traced the hacking to a computer at Manoj Daga and Company.
