Need Spyware? Check eBay
Think your wife may be cheating on you? Wondering who your boss might be talking to? “Learn the truth. Spy today.” So reads an ad for “Bluetooth Spy Pro-Edition,” one of nearly 200 mobile phone spyware products currently listed for sale on eBay. The software, which costs as little as US$3.99, can be used to view photographs, messages and files on the phone, listen into phone conversations, and even make calls from the phone being spied upon. Security experts are concerned, because while these products aren’t illegal, installing them without authorization to spy on someone else most definitely is.
