Rossen Reports: Webcam hackers can spy on you in secret
| By Jeff Rossen, Josh Davis and Robert Powell, TODAY Could predators be spying on you and your kids through your computer's webcam? Authorities say criminals are now able to hack in and watch your every move -- without you ever knowing it. We all do it: We use our computer, then we get distracted with something and just walk away. You forget the computer is still on. and the criminals are counting on it. Now they can access your webcam remotely, watching your most intimate moments from the kitchen to the privacy of your own bedroom. The worst part is, you'd never even know. Computer expert Jim Stickley of TraceSecurity showed us how easy it is. From thousands of miles away he broke into one family's laptop and turned on their webcam to view teen girls in their bedroom and in their dining room as the family ate dinner. "It took about three minutes" to hack into their system, Stickley told us. Stickley said such families are easy targets for webcam predators -- criminals like Luis Mijangos. Prosecutors say he was spying on more than 200 women through their webcams, even blackmailing some of them. He's now serving six years in prison. Rossen Reports: TV and furniture tipovers threaten kids "People who are victims generally have no idea that they are victims," Stickley said. "And suddenly, someone has naked photos of you? Or something else?" we asked. "Suddenly you're all over the Internet," Stickley said. So we set up an experiment using the Siegel family of New Jersey. With dad Robert's permission, we had our expert hack into their computer. How'd he do it? He sent them an innocent-looking e-card with a virus. Rossen Reports: New device lets crooks crack many hotel locks "They click the little link in the card and as far as they're concerned, they're going to see little quacking ducks," Stickley explained. "In reality, I've also loaded a Trojan (horse) on their computer during that time." We told Corinne Siegel and the Siegel daughters, Chloe and Cassidy, that we were doing a general story about online security. They had no idea we were spying on them through their computer webcam. We told the girls to go upstairs. Then we let their mom in on the secret: "We actually recorded your family dinner, no one was in your house except you guys." "It's really creepy," Corinne said. "It's absolutely creepy....my girls are in their bedroom all the time. I'm frightened for them." Rossen Reports: Extreme identity thieves live as you So we took it up a notch, having our expert hack into the webcam in her daughter's upstairs bedroom, where they were waiting with our producer. Imagine if it had been a predator spying on your kids. "I'm sick over it, actually," Corinne said as we watched. "I really am. It's upsetting to see this." Then we gave the girls a wakeup call. "It's scary," Chloe said when we explained our experiment. Read more investigative journalism from Rossen Reports "Someone could potentially be watching you, and this is where you feel most comfortable," Cassidy agreed. "I thought I was so safe the whole time, but clearly not," Chloe said. So how can you protect yourself? Number one: Leave your laptop closed when you're not using it. You can also put a piece of tape across the webcam lens. Secondly, don't open any emails from people you don't know. That includes clicking on those Facebook postings that say things like "Watch this incredible video!" Unless you trust the person posting, don't do it. Those random links are how the hackers gain access. The FBI says it's impossible to know how often hackers are spying on innocent victims. But keep in mind: one guy, like Luis Mijangos, often has hundreds of women he's watching at any time. Have an idea for a future edition of Rossen Reports? We want to hear from you!

Freezing: Family suffers in Sandy-damaged home
| By Miranda Leitsinger, Staff Writer, NBC News STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Dee and Scott McGrath were huddled under two blankets, both wearing hooded sweatshirts and pants, with an electric heater by their bed. Dee heard her daughter coughing through the night from the room next door and feared she was getting sick. Though they'd tried to cover up the open gaps between the wood on the first floor of their gutted home, which was inundated by 11 feet of water during Hurricane Sandy, the chill of a deep freeze sweeping New York was seeping in. Downstairs, it was just below 20 degrees. Upstairs, where they've restored heat, it was only 60, the couple said as they recounted the Wednesday night experience.
The McGraths are not alone in their suffering: Though the number of those living without heat is a hard number for officials to gauge, more than 9,000 dwellings remain without electricity in the city, according to data from the power providers. "It's rough, it's very stressful, it's very depressing. And you get the anxiety of not knowing when your work is going to be done and when your house is going to be back," Scott, 45, said Thursday afternoon, taking a break from working on the electrical wiring in his home. "You have emotional-like panic attacks in your head, you're thinking of what you have to do next to make sure your family don't die or get sick with the flu and stuff … you can't be exposed outdoors all day and this is being exposed outdoors." Some 20,000 residential buildings in the city were left with some damage or disruption to their utilities after Sandy. A city program, funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, had restored utility services and provided replacement equipment to more than 11,800 residences as of Jan. 21, while some 7,000 are awaiting help. Work on about 1,900 dwellings is under way. The McGraths moved back in two weeks after the storm, but they only got heat on Jan. 2. Before then, they had been running nine to a dozen electric heaters off two generators at a cost of $80 a day. Until this weekend, they had to take showers and use the toilet at a neighbor's home.
Miranda Leitsinger / NBC News Dee Young-McGrath and her husband, Scott McGrath, stand Thursday in the first floor of their gutted home where the temperature dropped to just under 20 degrees the night before. It's hard to get the rebuilding done in such cold weather, they said. "My poor daughter is sick in bed right now running a fever and I have to have an electric heater running for her besides my heat," he said of Crystal, 21, a meter reader for one of the city's power providers, Con Edison of New York. Upstairs the thermostat showed it was 60 degrees. "It's pretty sad and she's wrapped up in two blankets." Although the McGraths' home received help from the federal government's Rapid Repairs program, Scott said the program's subcontractors had botched the installation work, with leaks springing in the pipes when the boiler was turned on. His brother, a plumber, fixed the problems. They got electricity earlier, on Christmas Eve. But the work done by Rapid Repairs was "basic," Scott said, leaving them with few outlets, such as just two in the kitchen. He was installing more outlets on Thursday before eventually putting up insulation and dry wall. The couple has done almost all of the repair work on their own, finishing the bathroom downstairs, with a shower and toilet, this weekend. Though it was an achievement they had looked forward to, the timing couldn't have been worse with the onset of the subzero temps this week. "It is completely unbearable to step foot out of my bedroom," said Dee Young-McGrath, 42. "It's like torture to sit on an ice-cold toilet. And the shower, I mean, we have holes in the wall back there … it's just excruciating." The couple, who have lived in the home for 10 years, said they stayed for several reasons, including that FEMA housing options were either too far away or in troubled city neighborhoods, and many places wouldn't take dogs. They have a 10-year-old dog, Brownie, a chocolate lab and border collie mix. "Their (FEMA) answer was to tell me to put my dog in a shelter. That is my family. … I'd rather sleep in my car before I put my dog in a shelter," Scott said as he called a tail-wagging Brownie "Daddy's little girl" and gave her a kiss. They also stayed since they'd heard stories of vandalism. "Whatever I have left, I want to keep," he said. "You stay here to protect your property, what's left." Though the days are long and dark for them, there was a little levity when Katie jokingly offered a reporter a cold drink. One wall on the first floor is lined with bottles of water, a two-liter orange soda and a few energy drinks. Katie said they were lucky to have a roof over their heads when others still did not and were sheltering at warming centers, but they both said the stress and depression has been great. Scott said on some days he could not motivate himself to get out of bed and his hands would tremble when he was overcome with anxiety. They have been given sick leave from their jobs at Con Edison, where he is an investigative inspector and she an instructor, due to the emotional toll. The cold, with a forecast that it may snow on Friday or over the weekend, is making it even worse. "I have … panic attacks, anxiety at night, wondering what's going to happen to my house. You know, running electric heaters, I start to panic, thinking that I'm going to cause a fire," Scott said. "This is not a way (for) a person to live," he said. "It's depressing to come here every day and you're living in this house." NBC Nightly News' Katy Tur contributed to this report. |

Idol' shows its mean side in season premiere
| By Craig Berman, TODAY contributor
FOX Despite having a nice voice and an inspiring story, Evan Ruggiero did not get a ticket to Hollywood. "American Idol" made its season 12 debut on Wednesday, and as expected, the judges took center stage. Fox is paying Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban a lot of money, so it makes sense that the first few minutes would be spent making sure we all knew what big stars they are. But after the introductions and the obligatory crowd shots, once hopefuls actually got down to auditioning, the audience found something else was different this year: There was more casual meanness on Wednesday than in years past, in a sneaky kind of way, as if "Idol" were sending a message to its viewers. Take Evan Ruggiero, for example. He was an inspiration, a cancer survivor who lost his leg to the disease but still has a perfectly nice voice, can play the guitar and sounds like a showman. He was a shoo-in to make it to Hollywood … except that's not what happened. He got no votes at all – all four said they were inspired by him, but that doesn't pay for the flight to California. Is the show that desperate to avoid a sixth straight guy-with-a-guitar champion? Strange. Not quite as strange as the editing surrounding Brett Holt's audition, however. The clips made it sound like he was one of the best voices ever and a unanimous pick to go through ... except that that was all a trick and he actually wasn't good at all and got cut. What was the point of that? One new wrinkle for "Idol" this season is that the show is going beyond the audition cities to seek talent. Randy Jackson went all the way to Staten Island (which may not seem far from New York City, unless you're in a car during rush hour) to hear 19-year-old Jessica Kartalis after she was nominated by her mother. He gave her a pass to sing in front of the judges. Doesn't that seem like a guaranteed golden ticket? It wasn't. Four more no votes. Thanks for nothing, Mom! "Idol" also presented not one but two auditioners with heavy accents who failed to make it through: James Bae and Albert Chang. Plus William Hung got a shout-out later in the show. And yes, there was sniping between Mariah and Nicki, but nothing too crazy – just disputes over hats and "Mean Girls" lines and British accents. It's the amuse bouche for the drama that by all accounts is coming later. "Idol" did spend some time on singers we'll be sure to hear again in Hollywood and perhaps beyond. Sarah Restuccio, for example, made it through with a country song, then cemented her status as an early favorite by performing Nicki's "Super Bass." Changing the lyrics to "you all drink Coke" also indicates she has a keen grasp of the product placement forces that drive the show. Plus, based on her background clips, Sarah can shoot a bow and arrow, so if one of the twists this season is a "Hunger Games" type of event, she's a good bet to go far. Subway busker Frankie Ford advanced based on sheer force of personality as much as anything else. Ashlee Feliciano did a nice job closing the show and introducing her family, who fosters and adopts "medically complex" children. And while it's hard to see Gurpreet Singh Sarin – "The Turbanator" – going far, at least he'll get another chance to coordinate his outfits at the next stage of the competition. (Or "Idol" will digitally enhance his duds, as the show did with his turban.) Viewers also got some trivia. For example, now we all know there's a Camp Mariah, named after Mariah Carey. It serves nearly 300 New York City teenagers each summer in Fishkill, N.Y., and is a career awareness camp rather than a singing academy. Apparently, the career guidance hopeful Tenna Torres received was "make music," because the Camp Mariah alum was the first to get her ticket to Hollywood. We also found out that Mariah Carey is very good about making everything about Mariah Carey. Hard to believe that that would inspire conflict, but based on the preview clips, we'll see a lot of that Thursday during the Chicago auditions |
