SMS impersonated!

No doubt, Short Messaging Service or SMS is important part of our everyday life routine.
We send SMS being on meeting or wherever no call is possible.
We use SMS to pay for services like parking or stock reports.
We SMS feelings because messages are simply so romantic...

But only a few know about tricky feature of SMS - sender impersonation. It means You can set who the message appears to come from.

Like an e-mail, SMS has its own "From" field which is called Sender ID. Sender ID is what You see on the top when reading an SMS and Yes! - it can be changed to any text or even number!

This option is called sender impersonation, spoofing, fake Sender ID etc. I won't go deep-in-details, better see how SMS spoofing works:

Your friend - Max
His number is +42999877888

Max' girlfriend - Kate
Her number is +42345452334
In Max' phone Kate is saved as "Angel"



Send SMS from Kate's number to Max:



And that is how the SMS-message will look like:


It shows Angel in the title of SMS because
that is how Kate is recorded in Max' phonebook.

By the way Max can even reply to impersonated SMS.
(Of course Kate will get an answer, not you :)

Nice trick to do with Your friends, family or colleagues, isnt it!

Have fun!

Its not a good idea...

To write first post that way,
but who cares?

I don't wish posting my life into web.
I don't seek for virtual friends.
I don't care if this blog is ever popular.

Why have I created it???
To advertise my projects of course :)

Internet is like giant billboard, but compared to regular billboard, nothing here gets ever lost or replaced.

If You are reading this post than You are one from billions visitors overflowing the Web, surfing in starvation for good ideas or something relaxing our minds.

This Blog is in lack of those good ideas, just naked promotion texts and I must confess, I'll write about gadgets - unbreakable Love of Mine.

This post was 100% ad-free for You, Sir/Madam!
You have just lost 1 minute of Your valued life. Come back for more time suicide later :]
