No matter how a person tries to protect his personal life from invasion, there will always be those who want to take possession of confidential information. One of the most annoying ways to do this is by wiretapping. This is how scammers try to find out the details of your personal life, gain access to business information, and compromise you. Fortunately, there are ways to determine if your phone is being tapped or not.
Instructions
Step 1
Wiretapping of the phone is carried out through special spyware. Spyware is launched through viruses, the Internet, messages or in other ways. These programs work even when you are not using your phone. Therefore, if the phone's battery remains warm after several hours of waiting, then spyware is running on the phone. This is why the phone battery heats up and drains very quickly, even in standby mode.
Step 2
Another suspicious sign is that the phone turns off slowly. If your phone seems to freeze before turning off or the backlight starts blinking, then some program is ending, maybe spyware. In general, pay attention to all the oddities in the behavior of the phone, especially spontaneous switching on and off - they can be caused by extraneous software. However, don't panic - these can be common technical problems.
Step 3
Another sign to look out for is interference during a conversation. Interference occurs when spyware communicates with another device. Of course, interference can also arise for many other reasons, for example, due to poor communication or a nearby radio. But if interference accompanies any conversation, no matter the location, you should be wary. It is best in such cases to take the phone to a service center and find out if there are any problems with the device. If the hardware is in order, then you have a bug in your phone.
Step 4
If you find that your phone is being tapped, you can either contact a good specialist or change the device. Recently, speech encryption devices have appeared on the market - scramblers that prevent attackers from recognizing information. And most importantly, if you are convinced that your phone is being tapped, you need to find out who is doing it and why in order to avoid spying through other channels, for example, by e-mail.
