Has anyone ever had their cameras hacked. Last night putting my daughter down the cameras turned on. I knew this because the red light came on.

Not to my knowledge ( except those that left their passwords out to others; ex's ), not a true hacking that I know of.

 

And, once or twice way back when there were issues with returned items that were restocked and not removed from accounts... ( cameras sending to wrong emails , etc )

 

There were issues also a while back where the cams would come on when actually off, but that was solved, TMK too.

 

I would check my library just in case, also change my PW to a good one just in case... but also check the settings if running on a schedule as that has been wacky a bit to some lately

Are you using CVR? Was the camera supposed to be armed?
