Intercepting SMS/Text Messages
mopcoket picks up on a post by The Urban Kunoichi who writes about a company - without naming it - , which is "able to provide a service to intercept text mesages from a specified number and pass on the details to a subscriber’s handset (it's illegal, by the way).
He writes:
"We can now install, remotely anywhere in the world onto their mobile phone (providing it is a compatible model) a program which when they receive or send a text, you will at the same time receive the exact same text with the number it is being sent to and received from… This feature is an extremely powerful and covert application that is 100% trace resistant."
The Urban Kunoichi does list other sites which offer the sale of devices which offer "passive monitoring systems for GSM networks":
