Snooping into a co-worker's e-mail? You could be arrested

Ever pass by a co-worker's unattended computer and consider taking a peek at her e-mails? Or have you ever thought it would be a funny prank to figure out your cube mate's e-mail password and break into his work account to mess with him?

What may seem like a practical joke or a harmless, furtive glance actually could land you in more hot water than you'd ever expect. It could go as far as getting you fired or even charged with a federal crime.
