Here’s an inquiry that I received:
Okay – please, please, please, I need advice on this right away!!!
I’ve been in competition with another business, and I was contacted by a hacking service. They have been able to hack my competitor’s computer and obtain their client list, their product formulas, and processes. If I had that information, it could greatly help my business.
They require payment of “sorts.” I know it would have been illegal for me to have hacked into their computers, but can’t I just meet with them and see what they want and get the information and just pay them a little bit for their trouble? It’s not like I did it.
Thanks in advance for your advice!!!
What do you think I told them? What would you tell them?
