Santander Bank Hacking Plot Foiled By Police

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 13 September 2013 | 16.01

Twelve men have been arrested over an attempt to take control of a Santander bank's computer and steal millions of pounds.

The men allegedly fitted a computer within the branch in Surrey Quays shopping centre, southeast London, with a "keyboard video mouse".

The device, which can be purchased online for as little as £10, allowed them to transmit the contents of the computer's desktop and take control of the machine remotely.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said it was not clear whether any money was taken.

However, he said detectives and bank officials had thwarted a "very significant and audacious cyber-enabled offence" that would have cost Santander millions of pounds. 

Officers arrested 11 men aged between 23 and 50 in Hounslow, while a 34-year-old was arrested in Victoria.

Searches were carried out at addresses in Westminster, Hounslow, Hillingdon, Brent, Richmond and Slough, where property was seized.

The men are currently in custody at a London police station.
