Re: Phone Hacked
As @philesterhousesays, many different types of attacks. Edward Snowdon has an interesting video, discussing some of the NSA toolkit attacks (listening and viewing while making the phone appear to be off for example) but points out that the vast majority of people are not going to subject to these types of attacks. If someone such as a spouse has physical access to your phone, then certainly spyware of varying sophistication can be used. But again, you would hopefully be aware if that was a possibility! The more common, as referenced by @philesterhousewould be stuff spamming you with ads and/or trying to steal credit card/passwords etc. Various scanning programs offer some protection against these types of things.9Visto1like0ComentariosRe: Given wrong plan and now pending...
I have been with Verizon and precursors since 1988(and was also an employee) so I didn't switch lightly either. It's just that outside various states such as FL, Verizon has nothing like the price point compared to the T mobile's,55+ for two people. Cheapest VZW unlimited is $120 + taxes, so for $50 a month savings I am willing to tolerate a few teething pains!5Visto1like0ComentariosRe: Given wrong plan and now pending...
I also switched from Verizon to the 55+ (but just plain Magenta) so I was expecting to pay $70 a month. A few hours later i checked the t-mobile account I had set up and saw I was being charged $100, basically two single 55+ lines. I called and was told it would be fixed, but,like you, it took some days to show up. But it was eventually corrected. (I was also thrown by the 1 day bill, Aug-6 to Aug-6 costing $70, but once explained I was OK)5Visto1like0Comentarios
