of installing spyware on laptops that enabled him to snap and download
photographs of women showering and undressing in their homes was arrested
Wednesday at his home, police said.
Police began investigating when a Fullerton resident complained about
suspicious messages appearing on his daughter's computer last year. Trevor
Harwell installed software that took control of computer webcams on his
clients' Mac laptops, Fullerton police Sgt. Andrew Goodrich said. He was
released later Wednesday after posting $50,000 bond, Goodrich said.
The software sent fake error messages telling users to "fix their internal
sensor soon," and "try putting your laptop near hot steam for several
minutes to clean the sensor," Goodrich said.
The error message prompted some victims to take their laptops into the
bathroom with them when they showered, he said.
"Once he had access, he would take photographs of the users, usually women,"
Goodrich said. "Often, the female victims were undressed or changing
clothes. Harwell then stored the photos on a remote server, and eventually
downloaded them on his own computer."
Detectives seized hundreds of thousands of still images and videos from
Harwell's computer and identified several victims, Goodrich said.
Investigators believe Harwell, a technician for Rezitech Inc., may have
exploited computers connected to Biola University's internal network.
Harwell, 20, is a former student at the La Mirada Christian college, where
many of the victims attended.
Orange County Superior Court records show that Harwell faces 12 felony
counts of computer access and fraud, The Orange County Register reported. It
wasn't known Wednesday evening if Harwell had obtained an attorney.
Rezitech spokesman Travis Austin said the company took immediate action to
cut off Harwell's access to their systems and data, and is cooperating with
investigators.
Harwell did not commit any of the alleged offenses while working for
Rezitech, Austin said. | l*******u
