phone hacking question
 
Has anyone had their iphone hacked? I looked at my phone yesterday and it had this message on my screen, ready to send.

I don't know what any of that means and I certainly didn't type it. How could it get onto my iphone "send message" screen??

That's weird. No idea.

Could someone have gotten a hold of your phone when it was laying on a desk or something?

NYPIRG = New York Public Interest Research Group.

Nothing else seems to come up on a Google search when I search word for word that text message.

There are many companies that use YELCO including an old 8mm projector manufacturer and a real estate agency.

Very odd.

You sure this wasn't just butt-texting?

My butt doesn't know how to spell.
Maybe I should cut down on the gin and vicodin cocktails. :)
Oh wait. That bastard stole all my pain meds, so it wasn't that. :(

No, but your phone does. Still, it does seem unlikely that your would use proper (well, closer than a monkey) sentence structure.

My vote it's still that someone got their hands on your phone. That's why the message is unfinished. They put the phone down because you were coming back.

Any guy with that much precision in his involuntary butt control would be something to behold - could probably fart Mozart! I'd pay money to see that in a Vegas show.

Off topic but I once got a strange txt message from a lady I just started dating. It was meant for her drug dealer not me. I never saw her again. :D

I told my mother about it and she said "god loves you"

I've seen and heard about some interesting displays of body control by women that might be worth paying to see, but this....

Who was the intended receiver of the message? That may help give you a clue to the origins of it.

As for precision butt dialing -- that may become the next new sport in the upcoming Olympics! :eek:

It was someone I send messages to daily. He isn't crazy. The thing that worried me at first is that the SOB who robbed me had an iphone that he used to message me and there was a reference to "the house" in the message. I don't think he's smart enough to do anything sophisticated, that's why I brought the question here. If no one at PPOT knows how to do this, this dumbass sure doesn't.

Maybe your butt hit the microphone key and the phone got that text from whatever conversation was going on

slodave 11-10-2012 01:35 AM

^^ That's what I was thinking.

Aha! Most likely explanation. The house is being remodeled and it seems like I'm talking to someone about it constantly. "Yelco" could be "hello."
