LISTENING TO A TELEPHONE - is it possible to wiretap a mobile phone in Ukraine, as the special services wiretap

Wiretapping is a reality that no one is immune from. To infect a phone with a wiretapping program, you don't even need to touch it.

The program for wiretapping a mobile phone enters the device in the following ways:

  • via Bluetooth channel;
  • via Wi-Fi channel;
  • in an MMS message;
  • installed using a computer;
  • via mobile internet.

Be wary of messages from unknown callers.

Wiretapping the phone

The "wiretapping" program gets into the bowels of the phone and lives its own life there. The device collects information thanks to the activated microphone, and the attacker receives information without contacting the monitored object (for example, driving up to the monitored's house in a car).

The process of downloading information is as follows: Bluetooth is turned on, the search for a subscriber is performed. By hacking the connection, the bluetooth module is hacked and a spy program is installed. It is enough to scan the district, and within a radius of one and a half kilometers, the attackers see all the subscribers they are interested in.

If the mobile phone is turned off, but there is a battery inside, be sure that intruders will activate it from a distance. By reading your SMS, they will gain access to the phone book, listening and recording conversations.

There are several signs that indirectly confirm the presence of wiretapping.

High battery temperature

The phone is not being used for a long time and the battery is hot? The device is actively used. A rise in battery temperature means overloading due to a hidden application. Perhaps this application is a spyware for listening to your phone.

The phone runs out of battery quickly

It is known that GSM devices lose their maximum battery charge over time. If the gadget is over a year old, the battery capacity will decrease. But when listening, the cell phone consumes battery power too quickly due to the constant recording of what is happening around. To monitor the discharge rate of your phone, there are convenient applications: BatteryLife LX (for Android) or Battery LED (for iPhone OS).

The phone does not turn off

They listen to you if turning off the mobile phone does not turn off the phone screen or the device does not turn off for a long time. Pay attention to unusual mobile behavior. Such symptoms can also be the result of hardware or software errors (for example, a non-licensed application is installed).

Non-standard phone activity

Unusual behavior (automatic reboot, network re-registration) of a mobile phone means that someone is controlling the mobile phone remotely. But be careful, often the user unknowingly turns on the applications himself, provoking the phone to unstable work.

Extraneous noise in the phone

During a conversation, the mobile "listening" sometimes creates interference. Often insignificant - a kind of echo, electrical discharges, crackling, reflection effect. Also in case of pulsating noise from the smartphone speaker when not in use.

Interference on the phone

Using the phone close to electronic devices (tape recorder, TV, radio tape recorder, speakers) creates interference in the form of a characteristic “gurgling”. Such interference is a normal phenomenon directly during data transmission (during a conversation, when sending SMS messages). In case of interference that does not depend on the actions of the owner of the phone, in the standby mode, pay attention to the presence of "wiretapping" of the device.

Network failures

Using the "select operator" function on the phone, an unknown operator appears in the list of mobile operators in the form of a set of numbers.

Thus, one can understand that the phone is being tapped without using special equipment.
