A number of high-level HP employees have resigned and taken their Fifth Amendment right to not self-incriminate themselves. This means that either Dunn told these people what to do, or that they were working without Dunn’s knowledge. Dunn is saying that prior to all these shenanigans, she’d never heard the word “pretexting.”
Either way, HP’s brass knew what it was doing, and they knew that it was illegal. The story hasn’t finish writing itself, however, so stay tuned.
