A couple of years ago, an employee at a local cell phone store hacked my account and ordered himself two of the most expensive phone with two of the most expensive plans on my account. They would be delivered to my doorstep, but he planned on intercepting the packages.

Since then I always think about the risk to me if an employee at a company I used games the system for their own personal benefit. I think there is a tremendous risk with a home monitoring service. Mark my words, it will happen some day, and it will be ugly. Think about it, the service knows when you're home or away, and deactivating your monitoring gives them free reign to unload your house at leisure.

Now I realize there are some problems with that scenario, like the monitoring center has to be close to where you live, but that doesn't mean that some industrious criminals couldn't bribe an employee....
