Impersonator gets Meghna Naidu pregnant

Thursday, June 24, 2010, 11:15 [IST]
Internet has certainly made the world closer. In fact, we can't imagine life without it, and Indian celebrities are into it big time, including social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter. Actress Meghna Naidu too has been using her Gmail account to connect to people close to her, not knowing that it would get her into trouble.

Actress Meghna has filed a complaint with the Cyber Crime Investigation Cell in Mumbai after a hacker got her pregnant. The hacker breached her Gmail account recently and chatted with her friends. Adding more spice to the drama, the impersonator falsely claimed that she had got pregnant from a fling with a guy, who she couldn't remember and asked for advice.

However, Meghna's ex-publicist Dale Bhagwagar, who was also online, thought something was wrong. He called her home and enquired if the actress was on the chat but her parents told him that she had gone for yoga class. The actress was shocked and furious on learning that the impersonator had been spreading dirty rumours about her.

“I was paranoid when I checked my Google chats. This imposter had been chatting with a lot my friends and claimed I was pregnant out of a fling. To add to this craziness, he wrote, I"d forgotten the name of the guy who made me pregnant. All this bogus talk was insane and scary," The Times of India quoted Meghna as saying. “We complained at the Cyber Crime Investigation Cell. Sadly and strangely, the cops there didn"t seem to be much interested about my case. I hope they are able to track the hacker," she added.

The publicist has asked the actress to change her email privacy settings so that she might get into further trouble.

Your article needs some serious copy editing. I think that some of these sentences say things that you didn't really mean to say.

dear, I am not a soft ware guy nor do I understand technology well, but after I had a similar experience I learnt about security systems on each site and found Gmail/gtalk the weakest, you have money why not educate yourself with all these things, no ofense please just talking like a well wisher. You might laugh at me like my friends here are doing but trust me, education is not passing the exams but education is about gaining knowledge, so use your little time learning about things that would...
