How To Tell If Your Phone Is Being Tapped, Tracked And Monitored?
Tumblr media
There are several things or tricks that suggest your phone is being tapped, tracked or being monitored in some way. These signs could be really minor to judge but when you know what to look out for, they can also be glaring. Unusual sounds during calls- If you hear some clicking sounds, static or distant voices coming through your phone during conversations it could be a sign that you’re being snooped on. This thing is not normal for today’s phones on digital networks. It’s a thing that is associated with old-style analogue networks. This is not the best of signs when taken alone, though, since echoes, static and clicking can also be caused by random interference or a bad connection. High-pitched humming is an even greater indication. You can check for sounds that your ear cannot pick up by using a sound-band-width sensor on a low frequency. If the indicator pops up several times per minute, your phone may very well be tapped.   Use your phone around other electronic devices- If you suspect that there might be a tap on your phone, walk over to a radio or television during your next phone call. You should also look for distortion when you are not on actively using the phone. An active wireless phone signal could disrupt the transmission of data even without additional software or hardware being installed on your phone, but an inactive signal should not. Some bugs and taps use frequencies close to the FM radio band, so if your radio squeals when set to mono and dialled into the far end of the band, one of these devices might be in use. Taps can interfere with TV broadcast frequencies on UHF(Ultra High Frequencies) channels. Use a TV with an antenna to check the room for interference.   Decreased battery capacity- Another indication of a bugged cell phone is reduced battery performance. If a mobile phone is tapped it is recording your activities and transmitting them to a third part. This leaves a footprint in the form of increased battery usage and as a result the battery loses life faster. A tapped cell phone can also be constantly recording conversations in the room, even when the phone appears to be idle, and as a result it will chew through battery life. Phone shows activity when not in use- Is your phone making noises or lighting up its screen when not it use? Does is also reboot for no reason at all? If so it’s possible that someone has remote access to your device. If your phone lights up, shuts down, starts up or begins to install an app without you doing anything, there might be someone hacking into your phone and controlling it through a tap. On the other hand, any of this could happen if there is random interference during the transmission of data.   Phone takes a long time to shut down- Before a smart phone shuts down it must complete any tasks that are procession. If your phone is transmitting data to someone it will have to complete the process before it shouts down. As a result if a phone takes longer to turn off especially after a call, text, email or web browsing it could be sending information to a third party. Pay close attention to determine if your mobile takes longer to shut down than usual or if the backlight remains on even when you shut it down.   Increased data usage- Some of the less reliable spy apps use extra data to send the information collected from your phone, so look out for any un-explained increase in your monthly data usage. The best spy software programs data usage has been reduced and will be almost impossible to spot but the poor programs will show significant data use. Read the full article
