A WOMAN hacked into her ex’s Alexa device to scare off his new girlfriend from 130 miles away, a court heard.
Philippa Copleston-Warren, 45, allegedly used the virtual assistant to order the girlfriend to pack up and leave — which she did in floods of tears, it was said.
She also allegedly used the device to flash the house lights on and off.
Copleston-Warren, is also accused of hacking into her ex’s Facebook account and uploading nude pictures.
Prosecutor Misba Majid told Westminster magistrates the couple had recently split after two years.
She said the businessman was targeted at his Lincolnshire home last Monday by management consultant Copleston-Warren, of Chelsea, West London.
Miss Majid said: “The defendant spoke through the Alexa account to tell the complainant’s friend in the property to leave and to take her stuff.
"She also used the Alexa to turn the lights on and off."
“This so distressed the girlfriend it caused her to cry and she left.”
Copleston-Warren denies two counts of disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress.
She was granted bail on condition she does not contact the man and is due to appear at Isleworth crown court on November 5.
Someone was a bad breaker-upper.
Probably wasn’t even a hack - when they were together he probably gave her access to his Amazon account or app and failed to change the password after they broke up.
