The 6-year-old waited until her mother was asleep, grabbed her mom's thumb, and used it to unlock the fingerprint security that guarded the phone.

According to The Wall Street Journal article that revealed the story, Howell's mother thought she had been hacked after she received 13 order confirmations for Pokemon toys.
