Police are hunting a hacker who hacked 150 schoolgirl webcams using a trojan.
An electrical engineer, working with a group which holds lectures in German schools about the privacy dangers of the Internet, was approached by girls with a curious problem with their webcams – “Two girls told me that the indicator light on their webcams were always on.”
Investigating the suspect computers, he soon discovered them to be infected with a trojan capable of controlling the computer’s webcam, apparently spread through using popular messaging software ICQ. The hacker was apparently able to email images back to himself at will.
The attacks appeared to originate from the German town of Aachen.
Police are currently investigating the case, saying that at least 150 girls were affected.

At least he used a Trojan, can never be too safe.
Where's the picture and video evidence?
Someone give this man a medal
ICQ? Still got people using it?
*sigh*... and here i thought we would be dealing with a lolicon kira...
Master piece!!!
Hacking Web cams has been around for years,not to mention theres hackers they have never been caught.
I admit hes a hero for getting up to 150 but unable to get naked shoots and ontop of that not using the LED shut down code and even getting caught made him look weaker then superman =\
So you can hack webcams to watch people in front of the pc? good to know...
*go have hack lessons*
People still use ICQ?
Who uses IQN nowadays?
Also, me being a female who regularly sits around naked in front of her computer, which, by the way, is an Apple laptop (which all have built-in mics and cams)... this kinda scares me, haha.
give some evidence or we cant believe you!
im a german and i know its common in germany to use icq. I use it too but i dont get any trojaner with it^^. Well im 19 and i know how simple the girls here in germany are when it comes to pcs. The only things they usualy know is how to turn it on or off and to chat and browse.
They dont know anything about security or anything else and yeah i bet its easy to hack them. YOu just need set up a trojaner at asite then go to schüler.vz(another plague here in germany) and post it in the comments. I can garantue you that many of them will click on it.
didnt read my message did you?
Jeez, I think I stopped using ICQ around '97 or '98.
probably he had this website at favorite!
Hahaha
I read that in the newspaper last saturday.
Couldn't stop laughing.
Wow a pedo with brains, I wonder if he compiled the Trojan program himself or downloaded it.
In soviet russia, cam use you.
AMERICA ISH DA HERO .
Fuck they found me...
That's why I never have a webcam nor does my sister pedophile fuckers! D:
Is that what your parents told you? I thought it was because you couldn't afford one.
pretty scary
he saw their faces, big deal.
He also could have and probably did see everything these girls do every day on their own in their own room, including but not limited to dressing/undressing, self gratification, and possibly even underage sex.
Technology is a pervert's best friend.
any stupid cracker could do the same.
with a trojan? big deal -_-
but it's funny ^0^
i like the guy who did it for not lacking courage and imagination.
anyways, he'll get caught sooner or later
i wonder how come only those girls were infected. if it's really from Germany why in this particular school. I think rather some worker did it or someone used help of one of schoolgirls and it's not really Germany but some German anon-proxy, cause there's a law in Germany that allows it.
anyways if he was e-mailing these images than he's caught already and no proxy will help him XD
True story.
people that talk about the unsafety of a webcam. surely does not know how to turn one around facing to the wall. is not like not having the webcam is going to save you from the trojan.
lol he hasn't been caught yet
I wish i had hacking skills that pro
best thing ive read all day
>>150 schoolgirl
Gotta catch em all
Don't you mean "snap 'em all", eh, Todd? :D
I wonder if he ever saw me fapping >:3
And this is why on my Macbook I have a piece of thick construction paper taped over the webcam ALWAYS, unless I actually want to use it. Whether or not it's turned on, the camera can't see through the paper.
A simple fix to an invasive threat.
who the fuck uses ICQ in this day and age :o
russians, russia bought ICQ btw;
Oh Shi~
Tell me, what do you use nowadays? Apparently I am stuck in the past with centerim and icq (and jabber, but nearly no one uses jabber anyway).
People often bitch I should use skype, but honestly, I don't see the point in making myself even easier to spy on.
MSN and skype would be first choice.
uh~
I think no....
Skype is dangerous and MSN owned by microsoft. People nowadays suck. I stick with icq and jabber in my good ol' fashioned text console based centerim.
Honestly... MSN and skype? How stupid can people (that care a lot for privacy) get.
German loli's apparently.
im a german and i know its common in germany to use icq. I use it too but i dont get any trojaner with it^^. Well im 19 and i know how simple the girls here in germany are when it comes to pcs. The only things they usualy know is how to turn it on or off and to chat and browse.

I guess he doesn't know german, but I translated the story to english and posted it in the forums. ^_^
Ah, so you know it, then?
I see, I see..
Being German is no excuse for writing like a 14-year-old. Sheesh, you tarnish our heroic nation for which at least one faithful lolicon will go to jail.
I'm kinda surprised by Artefact, though. How is it he knows German, too? :I
how scary!
Germany? Nothing new!
you just cant resist school girls
wooo aaaa
Okay, tell me I'm not the only person who was afraid of the proliferation of computer-based cameras and microphones with internet capabilities.
I was only afraid of Big Brother watching me, but it seems that deplorable perverts are way ahead of them/him.
Ya, I used to have a cam and a mic hooked up on my PC till I realized that they were always on even if I wasn't actively using them. I started to wonder who might be watching/listening to me do the various things one does with a computer. So needless to say I unhooked those things and never put them back.
Also if you know what to search for you can use google to find any open cams and watch them for a while. Most are just security cams and stuff but some are kinda interesting. You can even control some of them and pan/zoom to look at different stuff.
No big brother was already well ahead of them as always:
http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local-beat/School-Spies-on-Students-at-Home-with-Webcams-Suit-84712852.html
You must be extremely sexy for anyone to want to watch you.
Not really. Have you been to any live webcam porn sites? People actually *pay* to see ugly ones naked. Personally, I don't get it.
Some like to see the ugly ones because they think they can actually GET an ugly one. It's like wanting a plausible fantasy instead of what they see as an impossible one.
now that you mention it...yeah, if someone is able to hack your webcam AND turn off the LED....yeah..pretty scary.
*Putting a pice of duck tape in my webcam"
Ok, done. I feel a little safer now.
I put a piece of duck tape on my webcam, and then took a picture of myself to use as my avatar.
As you can see, the result wasn't what I wanted.
Just put up a gay porn mag in front of your webcam. Hackers get pwned.
unplug/obscure lense. as a matter of fact, they make webcams with little shutters.
I got one of those little shutter webcams. It's always shut when i'm not using it.
I could have told that kind of things were happening. Didn't witness it, didn't hear about it, just, reasoned it.
With current state of security, if you would really mind some anon to watch your webcam at any time, you need to physically make your webcam be incapable to communicate with the computer, or the computer be physically incapable to communicate with Internet.
For now, it's easy to do: never have your cam plugged to the computer unless you want to use it, and then unplug it again.
Otherwise, the computer just simply has to be shut down when not in use. If it is a laptop, even that won't work, and of course the cam is integrated. Close the laptop lid instead.
When Bluetooth cams with integrated loads of functionality will become commonplace, just turn them to wall. Actually no, they'll have some cool 'can turn around without touching it' functionality. Drop opaque clothes onto it.
Webcams just simply have the functionality to permit anons to watch you. Nothing out there is meant to restrict it.
Or just learn a thing or two about computer security. Seriously, it's not so hard to avoid opening files you were sent over IMs, run a proper AV and not installing every single thing your porn sites "need to work".
Or just give up Windows and run a a more secure OS.
> Or just learn a thing or two about computer security.
Most people just simply won't do that.
Besides, it's too late now. You had to do that before doing the wrong thing ever with this computer.
And finally, there are other ways out there to corrupt a Windows system. If you don't devote an all-time attention to not being pirated then every time you don't was an opening the size of which you don't know. There is just *no*thing meant to prevent cam hijacking.
> Windows might as well be the most secure consumer OS
Only valid if you consider it the only consumer OS. No absolute security exists, but MacOS never regressed to Windows level.
Dude... Windows might as well be the most secure consumer OS. Not even iOS is safe anymore... might as well get an OS that has security available.
The alternatives... well... people may not like them... at all.
As for laptop webcam complaints... just put non-transparent tape on it. Problem solved.
Wow, do you have source? Sony sure seems to like their rootkits, don't they?
(More to the problem at hand, is this rootkit easily hijacked by non-Sony pirates?)
That source is involved with Sony and doesn't want to be named. As for the hijacking, rootkits are made for that reason, are they not?
Never buy a Sony notebook, or reinstall them from scratch. Those come with preinstalled rootkits. Yeah, for real.
Oh, and Sony might not be the only ones who do that...
The real question here is one for parents:
"Why the hell would you get your underage daughter/son a webam in the FIRST place?"
All the security issues (imo) only count for people who should actually have these things
Where were you in the past decade? Webcams are everywhere now, you barely even notice there's one with the computer you just got.
My online classes require me to have a webcam... the same program also offers courses to underage students...
Basically every notebook has one.
I'm screwed cus my webcam is built into my laptop... NOOO!!
2 things:
- Why do you care? I know privacy is important to anyone, but is there anything private your cam can catch?
- Close the laptop lid when you aren't using the laptop. Expect the cam to be recording when you are using the laptop.
I'd say "Who the hell still uses ICQ??" but the obvious answer is "German schoolgirls dumb enough to infect their computers with a trojan."
A true hero
A hero among men.
Seriously? He's invading the personal privacy of 150 underage girls. That doesn't sound so heroic to me.
Sigh, furries.
Underage girls are not sexy, Anon.
- yeah, we know u like only underaged animals ;<
"Lolicon"s Not "pedophiles". Hell, quite a few here wouldn't even -want- to see any 2D underagers.
I do wonder how previously mentioned hero knew he was hacking loli-cams....
Using ICQ, searching for "girls" "from x to x years", including "webcam".
Sending a message to ship the trojan.
Done ^^
I didn't even know people still used ICQ.
First he hacked the ICQ account of a male student and got his contact list. Then he sent pics containing the trojans to all the female contacts and went on from there. Quite clever.
well in the newspapers they say they aged from
15-19 years
one had a picture posted in the newspapers and she was 16 but could get into clubs and drink all night cause she could pass being 18 (legal age for alcohol consume in germany although it is not that often asked for a licens :D)
ooh and she was no DFC (probably b-Cup)
You're missing the point here...
Actually all sites are swarming with pedos by legal standards. It was pretty well stated above. Technically because pubescent girls naturally attract heterosexual men, we're all pedos in the eyes of the law, because not one of us has escaped the odd glance at a hot ass that happened to be on a 13-year-old girl in a bikini or something.
It's a gigantic double-standard that exists to protect naive females, but MUST be revamped in the near future to fit to the fact that it just isn't working the way it is. The internet is revealing the unavoidable reality of how hormones and pheromones work, and statistically 25% of men are the true definition of pedophile in some form, whether they've acted on it or not (and the vast VAST majority have not and never will act on it), and every man in the world is an ephebophile (likes teenage girls) if they're honest with themselves. As was stated, it's the human female form, it's got hip/waist/chest ratios that are set in our biology to seek, it's only a matter of scaling with age.
@18:08
They started it. If you are going to be upset at someone, be upset at wolfnanaki.
@19:56
Firstly, this site isn't swarming with pedos, but rather, there are a few vocal ones who make a lot of noise.
Second, you make a case out of pure assumptions. Interest in a certain age group is not mutually exclusive with having honest lasting relationship with such a person. When someone makes a claim "all X are Y", it's rarely motivated by logic and understanding of the subject they talk about.
This site is just swarming with pedophiles, it's a pretty bad view. I enjoy lolicon, and I seperate them from real children, as they aren't real children and usually have features that children don't have anyway.
Personally I'm sick of hearing about save the children, these kids shouldn't of had webcams in the first place.
I could appreciate a child being cute but sexy? Not even remotely in my opinion, but they are still modeled after the human form, people don't suddenly turn age of concent and then become available. Besides a very large amount of children have had some sort of sexual encounter with a friend or family member.
The problem with pedophiles is they aren't interested in the person but the age of the individual, so they have no interest in caring about them, and that is what makes them dangerous to children.
Underage girls are not sexy, Anon.
We're not talking about furries.
What we have here is some guy thought it would be fun to spread around a trojan that allowed him to run the webcams on computers. He used this to look at underage girls.
The main problem, here, is that the guy violated so much privacy just to bust a nut. That's not heroic or commendable behavior at all. It's sick and wrong.
I mostly hope the girls eventually just forget about it and move on with their lives. It'd be awful for them to have to think that somewhere out there, some strange people they don't know are looking at them naked.
Furries are not sexy.
Fix'd
Oh stop trolling the furries.
They're not forcing their fetish on you, you shouldn't force your fetish on them.
-____-;
I'm not saying it's wrong for a girl to grow up and become sexy. In fact, if these girls had taken the webcam pics on their own, I wouldn't give two shits at all about this. It'd be their own decision to put their nudes on the Internet, and I'd say "meh" and go on with my day.
What concerns me is that the guy got the footage through very illegal methods, without any sort of consent or knowledge from the kids, and he's being paraded as a hero in the comments section.
i disagree with you. "Underage" girls are ranged from 12~21. Since this happend in Germany, anyone under 18 is considered underaged.
I can assure you, wolfnanaki, that underage Girls ARE sexy. Or are you saying a 17 year old Girl can't be sexy?
@Wolfnanaki
Why would anyone be naked for a long time in front of their PC and webcam? (unintentionally)
If you really have seen a live-cast from a "common" webcam, you'd know it's a very boring thing to watch.
@wolfnanaki
Haters gonna hate.

wolfnanaki, what are you doing on this website exactly?
Hey, that a furry as your avatar?
Yup, my own personal furry character.
Seriously? He's invading the personal privacy of 150 underage girls. That doesn't sound so heroic to me.
don't you know? everyone on this site is a pedophile. get with the times!
the fact that you got downvoted that makes me wonder...
Let's just say we're a bunch of sarcastic/retorical nerds that say thing for the sake of saying them and not mean it.
A true hero would have used a hack that disabled the web cam light.
A true lolicon is one that hasn't been caught and is viewing dozens of other loli-cams as we speak...
*Slams table*
NO MORE HEROES!
If u consider him as hero, check the country in tags.... yes... germany....
WHO THE HELL WOULD WATCH GERMAN ANYTHINK FEMALE?!
He must be masochist
All of your comments about heroes
makes me want to an hero.
If this person is a hero to you guys, r@ygold must be a god huh? But fact is fact artie is the biggest pedo on this site. And I'm not talking about lolicon either.
“Two girls told me that the indicator light on their webcams were always on.”
Apparently those girls were too stupid to unplug their webcams?
For all those that say to just unplug the webcam, now a days there are many laptops that have built in webcams.
i think i need to add this, for moat hackers, its not about the end result, like videos or whatnot, its about the ride there.
r@ygold more or less raped the kids, this guy is like national geographic, not getting directly involved at all.
than they deserve it for buying those social network pieces of shit
@Schrobby
Ok, I lol'd. I'll admit it.
You should've added a *takes off sunglasses* in there though.
When he got arrested he had several of his live broadcasts on the screen. I guess they caught him with his pants down.
He needs to post the result of his adventure for all us to become a REAL TRUE HERO!
A true hero is you, X_fang!
do want.
Sharing genraly incresses the chanse of geting cought. as people then spread it more and more and then it hits critical mass and EVERY one know's about it.. then your screwd.
still not the first time someone has done this type of hack makes you paranoied about your own web cam dosnt it?
u r a hero lulz
this guy is my new personal god. i just hope that 720p webcams start to take off soon, NEW HIGH QUALITY CAM VIDEOS.
with those web cam quality may not be something that i cringe at anymore.
A true hero is the one who upload the video and share it with us!
everyday new fapping material :<)
should have used proxys and shields thought, now he's fuck'd
To be fair, the guy hacking into so many webcams, he's just asking to be caught. And I wonder why this is newsworthy according to Sankaku when there's thousands of such hacking cases every year.
And yeah, honestly, unless you WANT to be a camera-whore, you shouldn't just let a powered webcam mulling about. Just stick to manually controlled, shutter-enabled ones if you must, and unplug them at all times.
Sadly for that lolicon, he's looking at some serious jailtime for this. That's kinda the scary thing. The big brother has a big brother. lol
I suddenly have urges to be Hero
This makes me want to be a hacker.
Well not quiet that's the reason, but i never have a webcam, Why have one? I don't see the purpose, and I'm safe from this kind of sh***t
Btw. if You say Instant communicating with friends via for example msn or other program... in our country we use only simple text, without any webcam image. That's the common popular way of communicating via communicator.
And my friends wonder why I have no webcam. Thanks to sankaku, I have proof.
a true hero wouldnt bother with 3d pigs , and would stick to 2d lolis
AYE!
@Jack
I'm with Dathu...The indicator light has got to go if you don't want them to know...
A lot of the webcams in notebooks have no indicator light, I guess that's why he didn't bother. Well, that was not very bright.
