A FORMER staffer for Geek Squad admitted his team stole a porn star's personal data and then hacked into her home computer to get more.

A few day's later the porn star, Jasmine Grey, was killed in a car crash, leaving the entire team feeling a bit guilty, he said.

According to The Consumerist, Grey walked in with her computer complaining of her PC locking up when she went to use her webcam.

She asked them to do a tune-up to remove unneeded files and update her to SP2. The Geek Squad found that her Norton Protected Recycle Bin was eating up 12GB of files. It was password protected but since this was the same password as her Windows login, the team managed to get in to it.

The file was entirely filled with Grey's naked pictures and movies. The employees copied all of the files to a few DVDs and shared them with management, as well as most of the other techs.
