N.H. Business says Hacker Ran Up Phone Bill

Via Boston.com -

FRANKLIN, N.H.—A New Hampshire business says a hacker rang up a $8,700 phone bill for one call to Saudia Arabia.

Michael Bednaz, owner of Hexa Interactive Communications, says the caller talked for 808 minutes and insists it wasn't one of his employees.

AT&T is suing him for not paying a $14,600 phone bill -- which includes the call to Saudia Arabia and several other overseas calls Bednaz says aren't his responsibility.

Bednaz says he doesn't use AT&T for long distance. The calls were made late at night when the business isn't open. Bednaz hasn't had any luck persuading AT&T the calls aren't his. The company sued him earlier this month.
