HOUSTON – Harris County business owners said scammers filed for unemployment benefits in their name.
Pauline Edgar has kept an extensive log of the countless times hackers tried to access her husband’s online business account.
Edgar said she’s been able to use a computer business platform to trace the IP addresses to computers and Android devices in South Africa and California. She said the attempts have been endless.
“They must have it set up to automatically keep trying to get in and they keep trying and praying,” Edgar said.
