Hoping there’s no bias from the cybercrime unit
Dear Editor,
I’m pleased with the prompt response of the cybercrime unit to the threat to former minister of youth Lisa Hanna. No one ought to use the Internet, social media or any other media to communicate threats or otherwise intimidate people.
However, I have a concern that stems from the fact that I reported to the police that people with very big names, belonging to a very prominent organisation, hacked my Facebook, two Hotmail and at least two Gmail accounts as well as my computer hard drive to:
• remove and change evidence of wrongdoing, including a detailed 400-page audit and numerous internal e-mails, which clearly indicate people in the top echelons knew exactly what was going on; and
• access and use original intellectual property to which they have no right.
To date I have seen no action from the cybercrime unit, despite a threatening e-mail someone from the organisation sent me detailing the certain destruction of President Trump by disgruntled parties, clearly implying that my own destruction is imminent. To prove this, after I responded by acknowledging the threat, and pointing out that the writer (a female), who was clearly acting on instructions, would be held responsible for my demise on any grounds, the bigwigs hacked into my computer and removed it.
I would like to think we have an impartial police force which regards one life as important as another and the intellectual property of employees as important as the property of the big corporate entities. I’d hate to think a prominent politician gets prompt attention from the law but an ordinary citizen can’t.
I am certain that the FBI would be happy to investigate this hacking (circulating a threat to President Trump, which is so serious these cybercriminals hacked my e-mail to remove it). However, I’d like my own police force, my own people in my own country, to be the ones to investigate – with the cooperation of FB, Hotmail and Gmail and bring justice in this matter.
I have been careful not to name names, but I hope this public plea ensures a speedy closure.
