Why has no one thought to tell her about bluetooth hacking?
Here's the just of it,. bluetooth technology if enabled, can allow people to send/receive files with one another. Yes it does more than just allow you to hookup that nice new wireless headset you got at Bestbuy on sale. This being the case, most people once they enable this feature don't think to turn it off. This allows people to find you when they do a 'search for bluetooth devices', and with the right software, will allow someone to use YOUR phone to call people, text, etc. With the information you've given, this does fit. However there's one problem,. there is limited distance that bluetooth devices can be picked up ( we aren't talking wireless N here people ). So if this is the case, it's a neighbor. There are devices that can strengthen the bluetooth signal capabilities of a computer ( just like there are with Wireless routers and access points ), but the distance overall is limited. Anyway,. that's my half-cent worth.

the only ph no's i call are of at&t (which is free) but i realized that my 5000 night and weekend minutes have been exhausted and my 450 regular mins + 180 roll over minutes have been exhausted. I called at&t and i asked them to look into the matter. And the craziest thing is there are lots and lots of calls made to some 866 number which says its toll free . when i try to call that number, I am jst not able to reach that and many calls are made at the time when I am sleeping.
