KiK Hacked Arrested
Notifications OFF
Like many others our knock came on Monday.
He has been released on bail and they are currently searching through all devices found.
I am wanting to find similar stories relating to KIK accounts being hacked and strange email address added to the account.
If this sounds similar please do reach out I am hoping to find some light and desperately want reassurance.

You can search the forum for kik and there are lots of useful posts regarding the kik app, but not specifically about being hacked. The police have to have not only the kik app/username but also the IP address of your home address in order to get a warrant I think.
Could your person be trying to hide the truth? If he is adamant that he has been hacked then you'll need a decent solicitor and cyber security experts to review the devices/evidence when it gets that far. But for now it will be a long wait whilst the police search the devices. From what I have read on here 6 months to a year is not uncommon. We have only been waiting a few weeks so far so not very long into the process.

Hi Rose,
First of all, I am so sorry you are going through this. You will be okay. Whatever happens.
There have been many many posts on here about Kik, and Men claiming they were hacked. I have never once seen that to be true.
I can't give you false hope that your husband was hacked, but I can tell you that whatever the truth is you will be okay. Keep coming back to this group and reach out when you need help.

My home experienced the knock due to the use of the KIK app. What I was told-
It's a dodgy app used for dodgy things, and best avoided. Apparently when you sign up you can give any (fake) email address as your login. They don't do any checks or verification.
whether this is true (or still the case) I don't know, as personally I'd run a mile from that app or anyone who uses it so have no idea or desire to find out how it works. In fact I'd be very happy if ethical hackers do take it offline permanently.
Please protect yourself on the chance that your person is minimising or not ready to admit what they've been doing. As it may have lots of "fake email addresses" on; not because someone has hacked their account, but because they believe they won't be caught if they use fake or different email addresses. Some use a different one every time, some delete the app. But they can trace the IP address of your device and the WiFi you're connected on.
The only people who I've come across who have heard of KiK are offenders, their poor families and law enforcement.....and I used to work in IT.

My husbands case was kik related but from what I understand the police need ip address of which the app was used which in our case was our home address xx
Not to say your husband is lying, but it is common for offenders to lie and especially at first. My person denied it all until the evidence was placed directly in front of them. As others have said it is the IP address that police needs.
Does anyone else have access to your husband's phone or laptop? I think Kik is a phone app only but I could be wrong
