HP creeps stalked female reporter

HP not only checked Pui-Wing Tam's garbage for evidence they believed might lead to a director leaking information, but accessed her mobile phone, office phone, and mobile phone records.

The private dicks employed by HP may well have sat outside her home and followed her about, although the exact extent of what they did remains unclear, she said.

She was given a partial account of the lengths HP took to track her by its external law firm yesterday, she said.

HP kept a copy of her voice, took her photograph and also video taped her, said Pui-Wing Tam in the Journal. HP dug out details about her and her husband but might have got their hands dirty by digging in her bins, she said.

If HP's investigators dug too deep into her bins, they might have got their hands soiled by contact with her kid's nappies. Poo!

Her account is here. Subscription required. She said HP has still to give her a full account of the lengths it went to in its sordid quest. Of course it was all done under the banner of integrity, which HP prides itself on, naturally. µ
