Woman says her Amazon device recorded her private conversation and sent it out to random contact.
These people had their whole house wired but two weeks ago Alexa changed with an alarming phone call. "The person on the other line said, 'unplug your Alexa devices right now,' he said. "You're being hacked."
That person was one of her husband's employees, calling from Seattle. They didn't believe him at first. Her husband told the guy 'No you didn't!" but the guy said 'You sat there talking about hardwood floors.' And they said 'Oh gosh, you really did hear us."
Scary shit but you would think people would know about this by now. Guess not.
