Peeping Tom webcam worm created by virus writers

Imagine that a worm created by virus writers, what will they think of next.
"The company added that, once the worm infects a computer, remote hackers can easily gain access to the information on the PC's hard drive and steal passwords, as well as spy on innocent users via their webcam and microphone.

"More and more hackers are interested in spying on the people they manage to infect with their worms and Trojan horses," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos, in a statement."
I was wondering when something like this would surface.
