What Are Signs My Phone is Tapped?
Firstly, phone tapping, also known as wiretapping, is the unauthorized access and monitoring of someone’s phone communications. This can include listening in on phone calls, intercepting text messages and emails, as well as tracking online activities. As you can see, it’s a complete breach of privacy that can lead to personal and financial harm. Phone tapping can be executed through various schemes. However, the two most common methods are hardware and software. Hardware tapping involves physical devices being attached to your phone or its line whereas software tapping involves malicious spyware that is installed on your phone.
There are various reasons phones are tapped. It may be the result of a personal dispute, business espionage, surveillance, or cybercriminals may do it for financial gain. Regardless of the reasoning, it’s important to know how to identify if a phone is tapped. The following include some signs your phone may be compromised:
- Unusual battery drainage
- High data usage
- Strange background noise during phone calls
- Unexpected text messages, emails, or notifications
- The phone is behaving strangely (lighting up for no reason, apps take longer to load, etc.)
What Should I Do If I Suspect My Phone Calls Have Been Compromised?
While it can be difficult to detect, an experienced private investigator can identify and confirm phone-tapping suspicions, ensuring your communications remain private. They are highly trained in uncovering unauthorized surveillance activities. They will utilize their investigative techniques to ensure your phone calls are secure. Typically, they will conduct thorough scans and analyses of your phone by checking for any suspicious performance issues that may indicate unauthorized access. In addition, they will use advanced tools such as signal detectors to identify any anomalies in your phone’s communication network.
