By Cristóbal Bofill (9th grade)

One of the most recent events in our country, Chile, is illegal publish transportation card charges.

It was found out that people were getting money into their BIP cards without actually paying money.

Pablo Pizarro was the person that did this, he created an app in Android were you could type an amount of money and the code of your BIP and it would credit the money onto the card.

The government reacted quickly to this problem and blocked nearly 20 thousand BIP cards, most of them being student cards for college students.

Even though this wasn’t an actual crime, the government is now declaring it an informatics crime and Pablo Pizarro is now a criminal being chased by the law.
