I see both sides of it. I feel sorry in that it happened to her. As was said before, she's clearly ignorant, so it's not "her fault," exactly.
That said, however, we have no idea how much of the "hacking" part of the story is true. Most girls I PERSONALLY know of this temprament leave either AIM or MSN Messenger on ALL THE TIME. Since those both have BUILT IN webcam functions that can be set to AUTOMATICALLY ACCEPT calls from ANYONE, then what's to say she didn't leave it on? What's to say the guy didn't WRITE HER AN IM and SEE IT?
There is no proof that he "hacked" the computer. The girl wouldn't know hacking if it hit her in the face on the proverbial street. Why are we to take her word over this guy's?
Not to mention that the guy was in contact with her boyfriend, which seems to indicate that he was close to them in some way. There's a good chance that he's on the girl's buddy list. They probably know each other personally. There's definitely more to this story than what was written.
So I feel sorry for the girl, but I think in all probability it's partially-totally her fault. The guy, for all we know, had no malicious intent.
