MSNBC – Hacker spies on T-Mobile customers — What a great story. Can you imagine if this guy didn’t get caught what interesting pictures we’d have!! And you have to wonder exactly why he got caught. A must read.
The story says Jacobsen had his way with T-Mobile computers for a year, during which he was capable of peeking at any customers’ Social Security number and date of birth. T-Mobile has more than 16 million customers.
Jacobsen was also able to download e-mail account passwords and voicemail PINs. Using these, Jacobsen spied celebrity e-mails that included photographs taken with mobile camera phones. The report says the suspect claimed to have obtained private pictures of Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton.
