A Colorado private investigator faces federal identity theft charges for his
part in last year's Hewlett-Packard boardroom spy
scandal.
The two-count indictment charges Bryan Wagner with using a journalist's Social Security number to illegally access phone records. U.S. Attorney Kevin Ryan said that Wagner established Yahoo and Hotmail accounts in order to obtain the online account access for the phone records. In addition, the indictment charges Wagner with conspiracy for exchanging this information with Boston-based Security Outsourcing Solutions (SOS).

In October, Wagner, SOS owner Ronald DeLia and ARG owner Matthew Depante
were arraigned
in Santa Clara County Superior Court on identity theft, wire fraud, misuse
of computer data and conspiracy charges.
Patricia Dunn, HP's former chairman, and Kevin Hunsaker, HP's former senior
lawyer were earlier arraigned on the same charges. Dunn later plead not
guilty.
HP was rocked last year after it was discovered the company
engaged in an internal investigation into leaks surrounding boardroom
negotiations. As part of the internal investigation, HP officials approved the
use of pretexting, a method employing deception to obtain private
information.
