My ex-girlfriend has a BB as do I. She has been reading every text that I have sent and recieved. I changed my number but I dont know if she can still access my texts. Does anyone know more about this? Will it work since I changed my number? What did she do?

She didn't hack pip.

She might have simply read them off your BB. If you did a backup, she could access the IPD backup file.

You got caught, huh?

What makes you think she hacked your text messages?
Do you keep your device locked?

Keep it locked how? I use the key lock function. I have Alltel if that matters.

I hadn't seen her in a week so I know she didn't look at my phone physically, but she knew who I talked to and what was said..... When I asked her about it she answered with smerk and was obviously with holding information from me.

I changed my number just earlier tonight and havent heard from her. I texted this other girl and things are good so far.

someone correct me if im wrong but there is NO WAY to hack someones BB to see their sent and received text. if she has access to your TMO account she could add an automatic BCC to herself from one of ur email accounts but u said text messages so....try using a password lock

Yes you could see phone numbers via account management and yes you could add BCC of sent to email but not SMS. There is one third party application that could be installed that gives you access to texts online. The software is DexRex.Choose show all in your icons and see if it is there. Changing your number would have stopped the application from monitoring.

I would imagine that this is a human problem and not a technology problem. She has insight because she is probably seeing them relayed from another person or the device, but she is not hacking them. I think she would have to be pretty savvy technology wise to do this. Not out of the realm of possibility, but unlikely for the average user.

Good practice to have your phone password protected. Won't protect you from losing your phone, but won't put your data in someone else's hands.

Also, anything that is in print can be forwarded...be mindful of what you write. Works in business, why not here?

Well since BlackBerry has never been hacked, i find it extremely unlikely that your texts were "hacked". Forwarded from someone else possibly. Better yet, she might be talking to this girl and you dont know about it.

I seriously doubt your BB was hacked.

Does your Carrier provide account management via the Web? Any chance that she hacked that and that it contains recent text? It's more likely that she got into one of your email accounts or is talking with the new girl....

Sorry.

Flexispy isn't cheap and doesn't work on CDMA devices. At the current exchange rate, Flexispy costs 238.370 USD, or 150 Euro. I don't think Flexipsy is the problem here.

There was a program out about two years ago that we used at work on some BIS blackberrys. It would forward covertly SMS messages. I remember it only did one side of the conversation. I don't remember if it was the sent or received SMS. Anyone remember this program. Heck, I found it from Blackberry Forums.

So which applies?

a) You are not married.

b) You married the wrong lady.
b) 1. You won't be married long.

c) You haven't been b1tch-slapped around by her enough yet. :)

I went here on their website:

http://www.flexispy.com/checkphones.jsp?p=0#application

I clicked on the 8100, which is in the OP's profile, and on the 8330 then clicked "buy now". Both times I got a pop up message saying "Warning, please ask you carrier if they use CDMA prior to purchasing. Flexispy is unable to support this protocol at the moment, blah, blah."

Right next to ya buddy.

My suspicions are on DexRex as well, as that is the only program i know of that will log all SMS text, but again, chaning phone number [I]should/I] have stopped this

Classic - of course you're all forgetting plan (b) by which she could have read all your texts..

She's been doing the wild thing with your BESadmin at the office, and in exchange for a good *job, got him to secretly change the it policy "log SMS messages" to true which as all us BESadmins know, when activated actually copies all your SMS messages to a log file on the BES. She then got him to cut 'n' paste the texts across to an email which he pinged to her.

Of course she could be the besadmin herself, but you would have figured it if that was the case...

Isn't there one of these type of posts about every 3 months or so?

Maybe the story is a cover for this person looking for ways to be able to read the text messages on her Blackberry without being able to physically read them on the phone.
