Caught in a Web of Spies
by noteworthy at 4:26 pm EDT, Jun 1, 2005

Israel's business community has been rocked by a major computer espionage scandal that was uncovered when a husband-and-wife book-writing team complained to police that someone had hacked into their computer system and stolen files.

When the couple approached the police last September, they expected little. But by November investigators were suggesting that the hacker was involved in a much larger criminal conspiracy.

Last week's arrests included an executive of a major satellite television company, suspected of spying on a cable television rival; two cell phone companies suspected of eavesdropping on a mutual rival; and the Israeli importer of Volvos and Hondas who is suspected of spying on the company that imports Audis and Volkswagens.
