Cell Phone Hijacking
Someone just sent a video of a news clip about hijacking cell phones (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCyKcoDaofg) to me. Evidently there's software that allows you to track someone's location, monitor text messages and phone calls, and even activate the microphone and listen in when they're not on the phone.
Scary stuff. Anyone know the best way to protect yourself from this type of software? ..or how to detect it? |

Re: Cell Phone Hijacking
Found another Youtube video that has some helpful tips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujosfSkHFrQ&NR=1
Basically, if you notice your battery draining much quicker than usual or that your phone is staying warm/hot between calls, it's probably constantly sending data. |

Re: Cell Phone Hijacking
this has to actually be put on your phone for someone to spy on you... nothing really that scary if you don't leave your cellphone lying around.

Re: Cell Phone Hijacking
I think you guys are talking about Phone Creeper >
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527423 I was keeping up with the thread at the beginning but lost interest. The developer was supposed to develop a program to counter the original program so it could be detected and disabled. I am not sure if he did or not.
