what i heard bluesnarf can only be done via PC/Laptop and a special program. dont think it can be done via cellphone to cell phone. |

Have just joined this forum purely to post this to rdnymllnsktr - whoever you are - perhaps you should change your signature from GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU START POSTING CRAP THAT IS WRONG!!! to
ACTUALLY I'M STUPID
"Dude, are you dumb? Nokia's are the EASIEST TO BLUEJACK!!! Nokia's don't have an option to keep the bluetooth on, but not visible. Nokia's can be bluejacked the easiest!"
Nokia's do have an option to keep bluetooth on but set themselves as invisible
AND
"But how do you tell if a laptop has built-in bluetooth?"
I haven't laughed so much in ages.

You can only bluesnarf within 10m so if ure on the move its no problem. If ur on a train turn bluetooth off!

@joshimar-no YOURE the idiot...
1. You're so immature you joined a forum because you saw something you didn't like and wanted to attack the person who posted it.
2. Nokias are the easiest to bluejack because you can't turn the bluetooth off. After you send a contact, the phone remains on the bluetooth "send to" menu and you can continue to send contacts.
3. Please, since you're the expert, tell us how you can tell if a laptop has bluetooth. |

I doubt you can tell if a laptop has bluetooth, just by looking. Unless you knew every model that had bluetooth, but then your just a loser. Personally, i'm not that worried about bluesnarfing seeing as i'm not hugely bothered if some weirdo nicks my contacts, as long as i still have them. And surely if he crashes my phone, i can just restart it (like a computer?) |

Surely if you are victim to bluesnarfing you could just say your phone was lost and claim on your insurance, as for keeping important stuff on there if you use bluetooth then surely you'll have it backed up to pc anyway
What i'm worried about is peeps bluejacking my PC Is that possible???

@ ALL:
relax!
If your SE is 'hidden' you get to still use it fully with all your devices and NO-ONE can Bluejack you, Bluesnarf you or Blue-Stuff you!
I've got two bluetooth tablet PC's (see sig. below) and they routinely pop up with all the phones I've come across during the day AND the bluetooth services they support.
Usually though I only look in that window (Bluetooth Manager in Toshiba BT Stack) when it's already too late.
However, the point is: if you can use 'MobileNavigator' or FMA you'll already be aware just HOW MUCH info can be sucked out of a phone - without the phone actually giving a clue.
My experience is that this doesn't happen if the unless the phone is discoverable or paired (hidden state is irrelevant if the devices are paired).
I hadn't cared that my T610 was always visible until I first started seeing the snarfing reports last week;
so, my advice is...
...keep hidden to be on the safe side (because it IS a risk)
...pair all your relevant devices so you can operate easily regardless
P.S. You wouldn't see me coming with my BT PC...
... a Tablet PC looks like a notepad and with pen in hand I could Bluejack or Bluesnarf anyone within range (if I was inclined that way)
- they could stare straight at me, and be none the wiser!

I'm not refering to the newer Nokia's, as Nokia is having this burning desire to copy SE. I was talking about the older ones, so don't be an obnoxious d*mb@$$.

Yes, they can. It was stated that it didn't matter if your phone was hidden or visible, your phone can be bluesnarfed. Not bluejacked, but it can be bluesnarfed.

1. Then do me and all the other users on this forum a big favor, write that next time.
2. New? 7650 were released around 18 months ago, and it was one of Nokias first cell phones to have bluetooth if im not wrong.
3. First you say Nokia doesnt have that option and point out how bad that is, but when i say to you that some got that option you accuse Nokia for copying Ericsson. Whats logical in that?
4. "obnoxious d*mb@$$"? Dont know the rules on this forum very well but i dont think thats tolerated, well i hope its not. |
