Chinese hacker raids bank accounts


A Chinese computer hacker living in Singapore moved thousands of dollars
from 21 online bank accounts into his own, withdrew the cash and then
skipped town, a bank official said. 


Singapore's DBS Bank discovered last week that a hacker had siphoned off
amounts ranging from S$200 to S$4,999 after a customer raised the alarm.
Online fund transfers at Southeast Asia's largest bank are usually
capped at S$5,000 per day. A DBS spokeswoman said a Chinese national
shifted the S$62,000 into his own account on June 19 in about an hour. 


"He went to one of our branches and withdrew the money," she said.
"After withdrawing, he went off, he left the country." The spokeswoman
said police believe the culprit crossed the bridge that links Singapore
to Malaysia. Police were not immediately available to comment on the
case.
