Fijian and British national, Charlie Charters wife, Vanessa Charters has revealed that there were seven attempts to hack her Apple account. 

Vanessa has revealed this with screenshots on her facebook page.

There were seven attempts after Charlie was detained by FICAC. 


She says her husband, Charlie, was detained in Fiji at 12.23pm (00.23 UK time) on Saturday 21st February, one hour and 15 minutes before the first hacking attempt.

The first attempt was on Saturday 21st February at 01.38 UK time.

The second attempt was 17.23 the same day, the third attempt was on Sunday 07.03, the fourth attempt was on Monday 01.26, the fifth attempt was on Tuesday 05.58, the sixth attempt was on Wednesday 09.56 and the seventh attempt was on Wednesday 23.47.

They are all in UK time.

The failed hacker botched trying to answer her security questions. 

Vanessa says the last time something similar happened to an account of hers was about fifteen years ago, just as two-factor authentication was becoming common practice.

Vanessa Charters is not referenced in any of the FICAC paperwork against Charlie Charters.
