Texting Traces

Want to spy on someone?

Then get yourself a gadget called a text message reader which allows messages to be retrieved from mobile phones by uploading them directly to your computer. At less than £70, all you need is the SIM card, a USB port and you'll be able access not just the personal phone book details, but also text messages, even if they have been deleted from the phone.

I expect the Government is applying for bulk discount as we speak...
