I'm suprised nobody has mentioned how ridiculous it is to sue Best Buy. Geek Squad, yes, but not Best Buy. If I recommend my dentist to a female, and the dentist yanks the wrong tooth, am I somehow responsible? Actually, that's a bad example, because that screwup has something to do with his job as a dentist. This is more like if the dentist grabs her butt after he's through fixing her teeth.
If your gonna file a lawsuit, you go after the person with the deepest pockets. In this case, that happens to be Best Buy. The bad publicity alone might be enough to get them to settle.
Also, I would love to see this kids face when he got caught. Especially once he found out the "dumb" girls he was trying to tape were smart enough to take out his memory card and keep it. Heads up play.
Well, my guess is, as mentioned, the lawyer's suing Best Buy in the hopes of obtaining a settlement. That being said, with Geek Squad being housed in the actual Best Buy stores, and with the employee (of BB) having apparently provided a brochure for the in-house Geek Squad services, I'd say Best Buy is somewhat responsible for ensuring that these people are decent enough not to tape their customers taking a shower.

Well, BB will settle out of court to shut it up, and the guy will probably get off on a loop hole since the sisters stole his property. 2 wrongs don't make a right.

He would have lost a lot more than his "property" if this girl had a brother instead of a sister.

Who wants to bet that the geek squad employee set their phone down somewhere in the house. She saw the phone and took it while she was going to take a shower. She set the cell phone up then got in the shower, to take a shower. And this whole thing is a hoax?
WHO IS WITH ME???

The girls seem like they are lying. Unless they can get the Verizon employee to testify that he did give them a phone to look at the chip, i'm not sure i'm buying it.
Chi later tried to get the chip back, offering a discount for his services if they returned it to them, the lawsuit stated.

Or if they have any proof of this:

So they should have just given him back the only evidence they had?
I suppose impounding a car used in a hit-and-run is wrong too. Even though there's blood and hair all over the bumper, hood, and windshield, and the guy has a ticket to a car wash in his hand ... I mean, you can't take his property, man. That would be just WRONG.

If you go over there with your pickup truck then hook up cables and tow it yourself to a dna lab, then you're wrong. The police is another matter entirely. The same principle applies here.

I think this is more along the lines of putting a set of parking boots on the truck to make sure it doesn't take off, and then getting the police.

That makes sense. The equivalent for that would be if the girls had simply taken the chip out and called the police.
I don't understand why they felt it was necessary to hold onto it and then later take it to the verizon store. If they were sure that she had been recorded (like with the blood in your example), then why wait to call police? If you're unsure if you've been recorded, that gives you even less right to steal the chip. Plus, now that there's no real chain of custody, the Geek Squad employee can claim that he never recorded anything. "They stole his chip and then recorded the girl themselves so they could sue for a lot of money."

How did the sister get the cell phone from the guy?
Watch the video people!!!!
The guy was supposed to be there fixing the computer. I'm assuming that the girl who was video taped said something along the lines of "I'm going to take a shower, you can work on the computers while I'm taking care of business"
Geek Squad boy gets a bright idea to videotape the hottie. He probably says "Can I use your bathroom before you spend an hour getting ready?"
The report says that he placed the phone in the bathroom to get a good shot of her nekkidness.
Hottie comes out of the shower and see phone with red dot recording. She calls her sister to come in and take out the memory card inside. Then they take card to the verizon store.
