- Occasional

- Hacking by extracting account details from data

- Accounts are opened in the name of laborers and peons and their check books and debit cards are taken

Along with the emergence of computers, the hacker technique was also born. Such experts associated with computers have created an uproar. Hackers are skilled at finding loopholes in many cyber security measures. Hackers steal millions of rupees but are not caught. Money lost in internet fraud rarely comes back. 16,180 crore rupees were recently hacked in Mumbai's Thane. An FIR has been registered in the Thane police station. A group of hackers attacked a company that facilitates payment gateway service providers. Hackers used to extort money by targeting various bank accounts for several days.

According to the police officials, a complaint was filed that the company had been hacked for 25 crores, but after investigation it was found that not 25 crores but 16,180 crores have been hacked by hackers. The police have started an investigation and have also registered a case against some of them. One of the accused, Jitendra Pandey, worked as a relationship manager in the affected bank for eight to ten years. Police believe that the scam may have involved other people from the bank who hacked several accounts. The police are looking for some criminals and for that a search operation is being conducted across the country. Police believe that this group of hackers may have committed other hacking crimes as well. The police have also said that the money looted by hacking has been transferred to the bank account of another bank account. The police have seized several false documents from the suspects.

Accounts in which the money has been deposited are also being investigated. Hackers and the thugs who support them online ask people to deposit money into bank accounts. Such bank accounts belong to the laborers and peons working there. When the police go to check this bank account, his address is correct but someone else is operating his bank account. The police cannot reach the godfather who has a bank account here. Mostly such accounts are opened in villages and its check books and debit cards etc. are in possession of fraudsters.

Many big companies have fallen prey to hackers and data-leaking gangs. Such as 9 million accounts of AT&T Vendor, 37 million accounts of T Mobile, 10 million accounts of JD Sport, 2.2 million accounts of MyDeal, 69 million accounts of Drop Box, one and a half million accounts of Flagstar Bank and 145 million accounts of eBay. The world of hackers is very vast. It is difficult to say where the biggest breakthrough was made by hackers because thousands of hacking incidents happen every day in the world, but some hacking incidents are remembered forever. As in 2019, American Financial Corporation's mortgage settlement data was leaked. This data was very important and it got into the hands of hackers.

After 2003, the number of these data was 885 million. The bank initially attributed it to a human-made error but later accepted it as hacking. In 2018, the data of 50 percent of the users of Quora website was leaked. Even Quora admitted that hackers had intercepted the data. In the Cambridge Analytical scandal of 2018, anyone's Facebook account could be viewed with a specific application. In 2018, the record of 500 million guests of Marriott International was hacked. It contained their passport and credit card details etc. Hackers have proved to be very skilled. The complaint filed in Thane is also about data and those accounts were hacked by extracting account details from the data. 16,180 crore hacked is a challenging event for the cyber police.
