The rise of the modern-day ‘Peeping Tom’: How creeps are stealing nude images off phones

A creepy T-Mobile employee stole nude photos of a young Queens woman when she went to the store to trade in her phone last September, a shocking new lawsuit alleges — as legal experts and advocates fear a rise in what’s been dubbed the modern-day “Peeping Tom.”

Karen Mun, 24, waited patiently as the employee at the Northern Boulevard store took her device to a closed back room to see if she was “eligible” for the trade-in, but when he emerged, her heart stopped after she caught a glimpse of his phone.

“I saw his photo app open with, like, a bunch of my photos on there,” Mun told The Post, referencing dozens of intimate images of herself that she kept on her device.

“I felt like a part of me was stolen,” she said.

“I wanted to scream.”

Mun, a nail tech born and raised in Flushing, detailed the incident in a lawsuit she filed against T-Mobile on Thursday that alleges the company was negligent in its hiring, training and supervising of staff and created the environment that allowed her privacy to be violated.

  1. your friends do the same thing let them see a pic and the next thing you know they are scrolling thru all the pics looking for something

  2. Understand that your phone is ALWAYS connected to a network.

    If you put anything on your phone, someone can see it. Period!
