Sounds of voices in his room
The three-year-old kept telling them that he was hearing someone talking to him at night. At first, the parents, Sarah and Jay, didn't really believe it. And yet, their son was right! One night, they heard a voicein the baby's room:
Wake up, little boy, Daddy is looking for you.
Even more worryingly, the mother realised that the hacker had not only taken control of the device but also of the camera. When she entered her child's room, she heard a voice say:
Look, someone is coming!
Hacking baby monitors
Shocked that someone couldspy on them, the parents want to remain anonymous for fear that hackers will recognise them.
They still wanted to testify to inform other parents, because according to experts, there are regular hackings of baby monitors since more and more are connected to the internet, Not very reassuring!
