A significant breach of privacy has left a top-tier British female celebrity, described as a high-profile personality and entrepreneur, in turmoil after her secret affair with a legendary sportsman was exposed. The breach occurred when a cyber-stalker used stalkerware to infiltrate her phone, capturing an astonishing 86,859 screenshots, which included intimate exchanges and mundane receipts. The data was inadvertently left open online for at least two weeks, discovered by cybersecurity expert Jeremiah Fowler. He warned that the exposure of such sensitive information could lead to potential extortion attempts. The stalker utilized Cocospy, an app marketed for parental control that operates in stealth mode, allowing it to take screenshots without the user's knowledge. This incident highlights the dangers of stalkerware, which can have severe consequences for victims. In the UK, individuals caught using such technology for harassment face legal repercussions under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. Fowler emphasized that while this case involves public figures, the risks associated with stalkerware are prevalent for everyone, urging increased awareness of these threats.
