Hacked and Hunted: A Smart Girl’s Guide to Online Safety is a gripping cyber-thriller that exposes how quickly online success can turn into a nightmare-and why digital awareness is no longer optional.Meet Aarushi, Kaneera, and Sophia-three young women connected by friendship and unknowingly bound by danger. Aarushi is a brilliant tech mind who understands the language of machines. Kaneera is a rising social media influencer, basking in likes, followers, and viral fame. Sophia, a determined law student, believes justice can protect the vulnerable. Their lives collide when a celebration of online success spirals into a chilling game of cyber manipulation.What begins as harmless posting and online engagement soon unravels into a terrifying chain of events-phishing attacks, spyware infections, account takeovers, cyberstalking, doxxing, and personal data being sold on the dark web.
