Had you ever thought of having to protect your privacy on your cell phone by virtue of it being hijacked by an intruder? Beware, cell-phone users are being harassed by stalkers and their phones are being taken control of for listening and recording in the privacy of homes and offices. A conversation between you and your boss may not be private for that matter. There is no way of detecting that an intruder is virtually there.
Apparently this spy technology has been in existence for quite some time and most high-tech phones are vulnerable. Not only are intruders able to listen inside of offices and homes, they can be notified of private communication by text message or phone call.
We also know by watching detective and police programs that people can be tracked via satellite of their whereabouts. This is also happening and where very serious stalking is taking place.
The FBI and police are on this but not certain of the success of arresting any perpetrators.
Please take heed to protect your privacy by:
- Installing a password on your cell phone
- Turning off phone when not using it
- Also, the battery can be removed for additional protection
- Don't keep your phone setting around for easy access

On a more positive but Sherlock-Watson note, the cell-phone spying device could be used legally for spying on your children if the phone is owned by you. Anything you want to know about what is going on in their lives, would be available. A lawyer would have pertinent information on using a device to spy on cheating wives or husbands.
Obvious clues that a phone has been invaded is when having trouble shutting it off, staying lit after powering it down or it lights up unexpectedly when not in use and/or hearing odd clicks/noise in the background.
The only true cure for debugging a phone is to have the cell-phone provider clear it completely and restore to factory settings.
