MUMBAI: Akshay Raval, 20, is burning the midnight oil while his hostel roommates are fast asleep at 2 am. A computer engineering student from Gujarat, now in Pune, Raval is in touch with various such students from across the country.

However, on the virtual world he becomes prime_hacky089 when he logs into hackers' communities and shares information such as latest codes, websites for safe payment and tricks that can disrupt a website's function. Ahmedabad: It is the perpetual hunt for a high and this time it is making money on the sly in the world of cyber crime.

Youths with amateur knowledge of the computer world are increasingly being mesmerised by the word ‘hacker’.
