A fired Indian software engineer allegedly hacked into his former company’s database in a twisted attempt to get his job back.

Vikesh Sharma, of Maujpur, was arrested after allegedly breaking into the back end of his former tech employer, which maintains data for hospitals, and deleting selective informatio­n on patients.

Sharma, 35, allegedly hoped his employer would rehire him to fix the issue, but authoritie­s instead traced the breach back to him.

An Australian man plotted a bizarre revenge against his exgirlfrie­nd with a fake Chewbacca impersonat­ion contest.

The jilted lover posted fliers across Cairns in North Queensland, asking readers to call a number and deliver a Chewbacca roar — with $100 offered to whomever delivered the best imitation of the “Star Wars” icon.

But the phone number was actually his ex-girlfriend’s cellphone. His ex, Jessica, told an Australian outlet that she was taking it in good fun.
