SACRAMENTO (California): In a cautionary tale for users of social-networking sites, a California man has admitted using personal information he gleaned from Facebook to hack into women’s e-mail accounts, then send nude pictures of them to everyone in their address book.
The California attorney general’s office said that George Bronk, 23, commandeered the e-mail accounts of dozens of women in the United States and England. He then scanned the women’s “sent” folders for nude and seminude photos and videos, and forwarded any he found to all the women’s contacts, prosecutors said.
