Portland, Oregon – A concerned family is speaking out after they
claim that their Amazon Alexa device recorded a conversation they were
having in their home, and sent it to a random contact who alerted them
to the fact that he had heard everything they said.
A homeowner named Danielle, who asked for her last name to remain anonymous, told
KIRO 7 that she and her husband were in their house, discussing home
improvement projects and hardwood floors when they received an urgent
call from one of her husband’s employees in Seattle.
“The person on the other line said, ‘unplug your Alexa devices right now, you’re being hacked,‘” Danielle said.
“We
unplugged all of them and he proceeded to tell us that he had received
audio files of recordings from inside our house,” she said. “At first,
my husband was, like, ‘no you didn’t!’ And the (recipient of the
message) said ‘You sat there talking about hardwood floors.’ And we
said, ‘oh gosh, you really did hear us.’”
