Actress Kritika Kamra, the host of cyber crime-related TV show MTV Webbed 2, became a victim of hacking. Her email and Facebook accounts were hacked recently, but she says her experience on the show helped her take notice of the issue quickly.
"My Gmail and Facebook accounts were recently hacked. Someone sent me a Google document claiming it was a script. I clicked on it only to find a blank document. The next thing I knew - my accounts were hacked. But the tips I learned from MTV Webbed really helped me identify this immediately," said Kritika.
She said that in one of the episodes of the show, she learnt that Gmail gives a user an option of logging into his or her account via multiple devices or restricting login to one device at a time.
This is not the first time that Kritika has been a victim of hacking.
MTV Webbed 2 is a show conceptualized to raise awareness about the safe usage of the internet. It was recently extended to 24 episodes from the initial run of 16 episodes due to its increasing popularity.
