skype group call hack prank - fasie1 - Oct 8, 2017
hello everybody. there is something weird happened to me the other day, i was on the call with my girlfriend. suddenly the call was put on hold, i cut the call and called her back. 2 minutes later her nephew came from the other room with his phone on speaker and he could hear everything we were talking about. i cut the call and i saw notification from skype that it was a group call. her nephew is also in my skype. i didn't make that group call nither did my girlfriend. He did something. i don't know what
can anyone help me understand how did he do it? coz if an 11 years old can hack and listen someones skype call then anyone can do it

I asked if he had access to your laptop, or to hers? I mean it's very unlikely that a 11 year old found an exploit for Skype lol

haha exactly, i was thinking the same thing. but thats the thing, he never had access to my laptop, or hers either.
i forgot to mention, on the group call it said my gf initiated that call. but she had no idea. so i am just confused......

Alright maybe someone else has another idea but you might have been infected, it's rather unlikely because people who spread for fun (I did it for a long time too lol) usually don't do that.
Anyways, I recommend to both of you to download malwarebytes and to can your computers. She should also change the password on the OS in case the nephew after all really is a cybercriminal lol
If something weird happens again, make a thread in the white hat section.
