Proudlyngwa:really I must tell u as a phone engineer its possible ,but the signs here are kind of wrong except for one .this days hackers buy malware's(some write the programme) and send them open on the internet .mostly through a user clicking ads or visiting sites infected with their programs.when ur phone is infected they(hackers malware) gives the hacjers permission to access your mic,locations,messaging,calls,and many other personal stuffs on ur phone. 1 Like |

nmanma1:husband and boyfriends are fond of installing spy apps on phones of spouses and wives, and to top it up, android phones are so porous that you can virtually do almost anything with it eg turning it into a TV remote control, all you need to do is install a software and it hides without being seen, BlackBerry remains a bone in the neck to hackers they now try to out phase the device, get a BlackBerry phone and enable des encryption, keyone is cool |

iswallker: Has your phone been rooted. You probably have an adware in your phone, you will need an app like lucky patcher to check for bloatware in your phone, if you can check your list of installed apps, crosscheck it with someone with a similar make, such apps don't usually go beyond 300 kilobytes |
Re: Signs Your Phone Was Hacked by iswallker(m): 9:20am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Proudlyngwa:Thanks.. Will do a quick check... |

Nonso92:Baba abeg leave these ignoramuses. when I just started my IT journey. I wanted to learn so many things at a fast pace, Ccna,python, ethical hacking (Ceh) I was in a Cyber security Whatsapp group filled with indians nigerians in the group were just like 5 out of 150 and someone dropped an app claiming it can hack passwords and sort. Naive me , I download and installed the app and boom I was hacked! I didn't notice any strange thing like this OP says. Later the guy who hacked me later apologized and laughed over it, saying he was testing METASPLOIT. He had access to my messages, call logs, he could tell what site i was on. We became pals and He wanted to teach me a lot but I just wasn't cut out for hacking. I prefer the Network engineering side of IT, configuration and stuff So if you are still saying you can't be hacked. You be MUMU. Especially if you are the type that downloads all these Modded Whatsapp (GBWhatsapp) or apps outside of play store. you are toast! I can share an app for you via Xender and you wouldn't even suspect the app came with a Malware,lool dey there make pant dey wear you. 1 Like

Re: Signs Your Phone Was Hacked by Tomoyayi(m): 11:16am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Proudlyngwa: It is not difficult to hack a phone. Some apps require assess to SMS, contact, device ID, call information, location, photo/media files, Wi-Fi connection information, camera, microphone, and so on for them to work and most people grant the access. |
Re: Signs Your Phone Was Hacked by okonja(m): 11:28am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Ghostmode2two: That as well is not available to the public, except to security agencies. |
Re: Signs Your Phone Was Hacked by Proudlyngwa(m): 11:37am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Tomoyayi: Hacking entails getting to the kernel of the phone, if your phone is not rooted, Android will not grant any application access, by rooting your phone, you waiver it's security. This is different from giving permission to apps to use certain features of the phone. A hacked phone won't ask you for those permissions. |

ipobarecriminals:be careful because this could be "phising" and as soon as you fill in those details your kudi will automatically become someone else's own. I think the best thing is to go to any reputable place like "slot" for instance and see it a professional could assist you there.

Proudlyngwa: That's not a smart device. You can only use a Nokia touch for calls, sms and of cause torch light. The calls made on it can be tapped, the location of the phone can also be tracked using the cell towers. The call log and the SMS can be retrieved. Is that still not hacking? Is it not a Telecoms company that is providing the service? Is it not humans that developed the technology? Is it not humans that are operating it? Seems you are forgetting the Government runs/controls everything legally or illegally. Physical access is not needed when the device connects to the internet. |
