Theres also the other illegal bluejacking as well where you "hack" into someones phone and call a premium rate number that YOU set up. I always switch my bluetooth off when I dont use it as a)I have better security b) It saves battery

yes, there is that bluejacking too, its been well known about people getting thier phones hacked
I remember a friend told me he could get my phone to do what he wanted, i told him to do it, i accepted a file and it asked me do i want to use the modem, i turned round to my mate and said "thats the sh*ttest thing i've ever seen, why would i accept a connection" yes, abit of a letdown story, but when software like that wants to use my modem theres no chance im letting it |

lol, yes i know what you mean, some people argue the real hustle shouldn't be on TV because it gives people ideas, the simple fact is, everything on there can be found on the internet, its just making it known!
I saw the one where Jess asked to borrow a phone and set up a premium rate text service for someone...how nice |
