African hackers feeling unreachable at their locations
Africa's hackers are damaging industries. After COVID cybercrime increased dramatically. Everyone with a little computer understanding feels like a highly qualified expert in the IT world. IT criminality they consider as an interesting income streaming.
During the last months, we have experienced high volumes of organised cyber crime. Hackers, based in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Northern Europe, attacked our server farms. They have registered an illegal bank domain for criminal activities. We are aware about the action of a South African individual Sameer Sathar and a Zimbabwean IT aspirant named Jotham Zvikonyaukwa. He claimed falsely to be an IT senior manager of the AVIS group. We indeed have supported that
individual in our humanitarian function of sovereign help with university schooling in Spain, free flats, free flights and monthly salaries, insurance and VISA. Our senior IT developers have provided additional schooling. One day he disappeared with software and computers. We have discovered that he has copied some of our software properties, and he has illegally copied the client's data. We have discovered that he is a part of a hacker gang out of Zimbabwe. They have managed to attack some of our server farms. We have reported him to the authorities. Sameer Sathar from South Africa has been involved in one of our sovereign help projects in Zimbabwe. He manipulated working contracts with unknown people, creating false debts of 28 million USD. He then tried to collect from AVIS by involving a Nigerian criminal gang in London, 28 million. The authorities have been involved and the Nigerian government. Sameer Sathar misused project data for the manipulation of false information. At the time of the Zimbabwe country development in 2021 and 2022, Sameer Sathar collected the monies transferred to some local banks new established accounts. The developer cash never landed for the payments of cost and fees in Zimbabwe, instead landed up in the pocket of Sameer Sathar. Read more
