WHO CAN READ SMS IN YOUR PHONE?

[частный детектив Курск]

Have you been offered to learn to read other people's SMS? MK-Latvia decided to find out if this is reality or “divorce”; can someone get into your phone?
“Read all received and sent SMS. Even if they were removed from the phone! ” - Such a tempting offer for all jealous people has recently appeared in the bowels of the Internet. Then the TV advertisement went: “SMS interceptor will tell everything that the spouse is trying to conceal!” “Want to know the secrets of a competitor?” Get an SMS Spy! ” - reads spam received by email.

For the time being, we thought that all this was just another scam, until the reader of MK-Latvia Dmitry assured us otherwise. His wife was somehow able to read all the messages that were addressed to Dima ... How she did this, remained a secret for Dmitry, the family broke up. Well, MK-Latvia decided to find out how, nevertheless, it is possible to read other people's SMS messages.

"A simpleton does not need a knife ..."

I want to say that the “SMS-interceptor” is not the first divorce that jealous citizens come across. Before him, a slightly different type of scam was popular among the Othello.

So, you go to some site, and from there a sign pops up with a taunting question: "Do you want to know where your other half is now?" Curiosity takes its toll, and you press the yes key. Immediately another sign pops up, which asks to send the phone number of your missus. In short, as a result of sending several paid messages you will be shown a map of, say, Riga. The signature under the card will say that here is your girlfriend. Everything, finita la comedy. Bottom line: a certain amount of money has been taken from you.

Well, yes, we were distracted. Let's go back to our sheep - sorry, jealous. Such an Othello enters the World Wide Web and sees a stunning video clip. The mini-film shows a certain telephone and the message on it: “Come to me when my husband is not at home ...” Next the question is asked: “Do you want to know what your soul mate is writing?” Then send an SMS to the number ... ”A jealous man, tormented by suspicions, dutifully sends one text message after another and watches how the program depicts violent activity. In the end, a suspicious husband sees a letter allegedly from his half. It reads: “Baby, do not follow me! I love only you!" And then, in small letters, Othello is notified that he participated in the draw. Haha The second time a jealous person “laughs” when he receives an invoice for all sent SMS messages.

But not only jealous people want to know what comes to their loved one on the phone. Ludmila, the mother of a 14-year-old girl, tells.

- For some time now, my daughter began to act defiantly. She changed a lot, and I began to fear that she was in a bad company. And the neighbor also said that some adult guy brought my daughter home. Therefore, although I consider myself a loyal mother, I nevertheless decided to control my daughter’s personal life. And when she saw an SMS-interceptor advertisement on TV, she immediately began to act according to the instructions. I had to send several paid SMS messages, by the way, very expensive. As a result, I got a game called “SMS Scout” on my phone. She did not bring me any real information ...

Some advanced citizens believe that reading the letters of others does not necessarily require the help of the Internet. It’s enough to be able to use bluetooth. True, there are several conditions. To get other people's SMS messages on your mobile phone, you need to have phones nearby (within a radius of 100 meters). In addition, both must have bluetooth enabled and a special program.

Telephone operators: “Customers should not be afraid”

Cheating blocked

We asked to comment on the fraud with the "SMS-interceptors" of the mobile operators Tele2, Bite and LMT. It turns out that they all know that some providers offer to purchase games - “SMS interceptor” or “location determination”, which are perceived by subscribers not as a game, but as a real service that allows you to find out the details of other people's private lives. All representatives of the surveyed mobile networks said that they are doing everything possible so that their customers do not suffer.

The toughest position in this sense is the LMT and Tele2.

Says Elina Lidere, spokeswoman for Latvijas Mobilais Telefons:

- Internet suggestions regarding reading other people's messages are a hoax! Fraudsters are trying to lure people out of money with the help of paid SMS messages. But our customers have nothing to worry about: we closed the phone numbers of the deceivers and now we cannot send an SMS message to their number. We do not want our customers to suffer because of their curiosity!

Guido Endlers, Tele2 Security Manager, assured us that the company is doing everything possible so that their customers are not deceived:

- Firstly, I want to say that our network provides a secure and confidential communication. But it is no secret that there are portals that offer the ability to read other people's SMS messages and take a lot of money for this. Therefore, we have blocked this “service” for our customers.

Bite Customer Service Manager Zita Zilgava also tried to reassure her subscribers:

- Third parties can’t get data from someone else’s mobile phone! Therefore, all offers of this kind are nothing more than a hoax! This fraud is aimed at luring money - with the help of paid SMS, which supposedly activate the interceptor program. The person thinks that the price of the text message is 35 centimes, as indicated on the site, but in reality it reaches 3 lats per message.

Computer Specialist: “You can hack any phone!”
Is your phone protected?

And now for the fun part. It turns out that in addition to the divorces in the “case of reading ALIEN SMS”, there is a real opportunity to read letters NOT ADDRESSED TO YOU. Otherwise, as if the wife of our reader Dima found his correspondence ...
About REAL methods of intercepting other people's messages, we were told by KPMG security consultant Kondrad Shmelkov:

- To read other people's SMS messages, you can use four ways. Two of them are accessible to the "simple" person and two are practically inaccessible.
Option one is the easiest and most well-known. But it can be applied only if you have access to someone else's phone. The program "Spy" is installed on this phone (it can be downloaded on the Web for a nominal fee). The program operates in such a way that all messages received and sent by the owner of the installed phone are copied and sent further to the specified address. For example, to you: on your email or mobile phone.

Here I want to add that if you do not have access to someone else's phone, and you really want to know what topics the owner is talking about, then you can do it differently. Simply buy a new phone, download the Spy program into it and give it to your soul mate, child or business partner.

The second option for reading the text messages is related to the damage to the SIM card of the person whose messages you want to read. What gives cloning? Yes all! Using cloning, you can receive all the calls and messages of another person on your mobile. And your “friend” will not even guess that his personal space is violated. But there is one caveat. If you don’t know this “pin-code”, you will have to crack the card. At the same time, the risk of damage to the SIM card is great. This means that while the phone is working with a cloned card, communication may be disconnected.

Cloning someone else’s SIM card is quite simple. To do this, you need to go to the mobile phone service center, where damaged SIM cards are restored, and agree on “Operation X” with the wizard. The masters have a special device that reads SIM-cards. If you insert your friend’s card into this device and run a special program, then the SIM card is cloned. I already talked about the result of cloning.

The third version of "reading letters" to a mere mortal is practically inaccessible. Only law enforcement agencies can use it. It is enough for their representatives to come to the mobile operator and demand all printouts of messages.
Well, the fourth option for reading the text messages is very expensive. On the Internet, you can buy a portable cell for a GSM network and use it to intercept other people's letters. The cost of this honeycomb is several hundred thousand dollars.

Detective agency: “It's a criminal offense!”
Detective to the rescue!

Anyone who does not "fumble" on the Internet at all, but really wants to know what they write to his business partner, child, wife, can contact a detective agency. Some illegal detectives offer services for hacking, listing and detailing SMS.

It is clear that all this is punishable by law and entails criminal liability before the law.

How do detective agencies work? Yes, simple! They either contact familiar hackers and they install the necessary program on the phone, or they remake the SIM card (our interlocutor has already talked about this). But there is another illegal version of the "extraction" of the necessary information. Sometimes agencies print out SMS messages from “their people” working in the “right” places. This may be the operators of the call center, having direct access to the server on which all SMS messages are stored.

Says the head of the detective agency Rīgas Detektīvu Aģentūra lawyer Olga Zelika:

- I will not hide, once a client came to me who wanted to read someone else's SMS messages. And although I have a familiar hacker who could easily help my client, I did not reduce them, since this is against the law. But on a legal basis, I can help the injured party - the agency’s staff will find out if there is a “spy” on the phone and tell you how to get rid of it. In some cases, detectives can even help find out who exactly put the malicious program on the phone. In general, I believe that any information that interests you (who your son contacted, whether your husband cheats on you, whether your partner is lying) can be obtained by more legitimate methods than by reading their SMS messages!

Read someone else's SMS and ... catch the virus!

Tempting offers to learn secrets filled the Internet
Tempting offers began to come by e-mail: do you want to read other people's SMS?

In the letter, a certain company - the information technology center MOBILE STUDIO - presents the latest version of its SMS Reader V2.7 program. “With it, you can download SMS messages from any mobile phone and at the same time remain completely anonymous.”

The evaluation version of the program, with which you can read 50 messages, can be downloaded supposedly for free. “If you liked our program, you can purchase a license key,” the letter says.

However, as it turned out, curiosity is punishable. When you install the program, you personally install a virus in your computer. This “Trojan,” as malware is commonly called, will simply steal your data from the computer. If you have a good antivirus, it will warn you that the program is dangerous. And if not, then your computer will be infected.

According to unofficial data, the number of people wishing to get the texts of all the other SMS messages is growing exponentially. These are competitors at work, and jealous spouses, and parents worrying about their teenage children. The phrase "owning information - owns the world" becomes a reality and best describes people who want to receive a printout of SMS.

An alternative to printing (hacking) SMS is the Spy Phone Suite cell tapping program, which is installed on the phone you are interested in and allows you to track all calls and SMS messages sent and received from the target phone. The program installed on the phone sends copies of all incoming and outgoing SMS messages to the server, with access to which you can track at any time where and with whom your children went to spend the night looking for information about the actions of the husband or wife, your partner, competitor or employee. In versions of Spy Phone Suite, in addition to printing SMS messages on the server, there is also a function for wiretapping conversations. The program allows you to own information, which means that you are always one step ahead of the others to make the right, quick and informed decisions.

Is it likely that hacker companies can really provide text messages with text messages?
