FlexiSpy Cell Phone Tapping Software   - 61,956 Views, 23 Comments

Summary: Forget plain old mobile phone tracking. FlexiSpy is a cell phone tapping and spying software that, once slipped on to your cell phone, sends all of the data from your cell phone to the person spying on you. It also allows them to turn on your cell phone's microphone so that they can remotely listen in on what you are doing, and on your calls! It currently works with all Nokia 60, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile phones, and, according to FlexiSpy, more phones are being added all the time.

Forget plain old mobile phone tracking. FlexiSpy is a cell phone tapping and spying software that, once slipped on to your cell phone, sends all of the data from your cell phone to the person spying on you. It also allows them to turn on your cell phone’s microphone so that they can remotely listen in on what you are doing, and on your calls! It currently works with all Nokia 60, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile phones, and, according to FlexiSpy, more phones are being added all the time.

According to the FlexiSpy site, “FlexiSPY is software you download into the phone. The software then collects all available data and sends it to you [sic] web account where you can view it from any computer. It sends the data using the phones [sic] Internet connection. The software also looks out for incoming calls with predefined numbers and then silently switches on the phone so you can hear the surroundings or even the phone call.”

In order to surreptitiously install the software on a victim’s phone, the spying person need only have the phone in their hands long enough to navigate to a web page with the phone, and enter their FlexiSpy code. This causes the spying software to be downloaded to the phone and enabled.

What is not yet clear is how you know that the software has been installed on your phone. In order to determine this, someone would have to experiment by downloading the software onto their own Nokia 60, Blackberry, or Windows Mobile phone (we have already disposed of those phones that we used for our comparison with the Sidekick), and see where it ends up. If any of our readers do this (you can get the software from the FlexiSpy site), please be sure to report back here!

  10. Its not soo fun when u fuck you’re boss at work then she gets ahold of you’re phone & installs this malware, uses it for identity theft & to harass anyone you call. The software even works if youre talking to a landline from a cell phone or cell phone t cell phone. As long as one of the 2 phones has the mal-ware running. The police in most jurisdictiions have no clue when it comes to the internals of technology. So they just tell you its someone you know. In other words someone asshole playing around can cost some their job,money,credit, & eventually someones life. Whether a spouse gets mad & murders someone they thinks cheating on them or that person just commits suicide since they cant escape the eavesdropping. only the person may not know its coming from their cell phone. In my case my boss got enough personal info she entered my house at will when i was sleep & if I got a new phone installed this crap before I woke up. So folks yeah the crap works but dont use it.

  17. I’m pretty sure that if I found someone invading my privacy, especially to this extent, I would execute them - in the worse possible way I could think of at the time. Consider that when you are thinking about playing with fire. You might get burned worse than you imagined.

  20. How can a person tell if it has been downloaded on their cell phone or home phone?

    Comment by daivd mark — 6/15/2009 @ 3:07 am

  21. Reply to David Mark.

    1. Your partner has recently asked to borrow your phone to “install some cool software” or download a ringtone. (Mobile Spy, Neo Call, & Flexispy all require someone to physically install the software)

    2. You notice an unusual increase in GPRS activity. (remember, most of these apps such as Flexispy use GPRS to transfer the data logs)

    3. Your SMS bill has recently increased and you dont remember sending so many messages. (Apps such as Neo Call use SMS forwarding)

    4. You notice the GPRS and/or the internet connection icon activate for no reason several times a day.

    5. Your phone ‘lights up’ for no reason but doesnt ring. (Apps such as Flexispy have remote monitoring and Flexispy cannot stop the phone from lighting up/flash when someone calls your phone to monitor you)

    I am working up an article on my review site if your interested in more detail.

  22. I have a guy who claims he is ex-cia tracking my family phones to find material to use against me and my loved ones. Can this technology be remotely activated? as in could he be listening without having possession of my [phone?

    Comment by MartinCurry — 6/30/2009 @ 3:03 pm

  23. @ Martin Curry - Unquestionably the Government have the ability to listen in on your Cell Phone through remote activation - so in theory it can be done however its not “routine” this is a serious resource so the question do you really think that your that important ? I am not trying to be rude its a genuine question and the second is why would he disclose his actions and his background ? That makes no sense, generally peolpe that tell you these things like I am ex CIA or ex BlackOps are full of it.
