This spying technique was developed by a security company from Germany.
In their technique they send an invisible text message to the victim
mobile phone. The message enables the victim mobile phone to make a
conference call with the hacker without the caller and victim’s
knowledge. The nature of service message (SMS) is similar to those of
the messages send to customer to update their SIM settings like GPRS or
MMS settings. A hacker can send a similar message that can reprogram the
victim’s mobile phone. After the victim’s mobile phone has been
reprogrammed each incoming and outgoing call is conference with the
hacker without the victim’s knowledge. The
victim will pay for the conference call charges. To avoid hacker’s
number in getting listed in the call history on the mobile phone bill
(the monthly statement), the attacker can choose a 0800 number instead of his cell number that is redirected using VOIP to attacker’s own mobile phone or even a PC.
Another method is by dialing (on the victims phone) **06* followed by
the attackers phone number and then #. after dialing the above code
successfully the attackers phone will always ring each time his victim
has a call and all conversation will be taped.
The victim can cancel it by dialing ##002#
