Hacked into THOUSANDS of people in Spain and other European countries received threatening emails apparently sent from a Torrevieja law firm’s address. The messages, supposedly sent on behalf of a client, demanded rapid payment of an outstanding bill for €655.34 and accused the late-payer of being “shameless.” No method for making payment was provided, although the emails gave numbers for a 24-hour landline and a mobile. Attempts to call these numbers were fruitless, with no reply from one and a recording on the other without an option for leaving a message. The Guardia Civil are now investigating the emails’ origins, although communications’ experts told the Spanish media that the demands were probably an attack on the law firm’s reputation, possibly from a disgruntled client.

hearsals came to a halt. Even when restrictions were eventually eased, only limited get‐togethers for glorified read‐throughs were possible with cast members obliged to ob‐ serve social distancing rules and sitting at separate ta‐ bles.
