Phone bill too high?
This well may be old news, sorry Roddles if it is, but please feel free to
abuse me. I deserve it, and I know it helps you as well.
Read a couple of days ago that Bluetooth has been hacked to such an extent
that sniffers can locate a phone running Bluetooth, and even dial out on it,
unknown to the 'phone owner.
Nokia 6310 and 6310i series the most vulnerable, other Nokias also
vulnerable; Siemens at this stage cannot be hacked.
Sort of lost the thread (it was 03:00 and I was sleep walking), but some
info here:-

what makes it more vulnerable than the others?

Presumably a bug in the implementation allows terminal commands to be
executed etc without proper authentication.

mmrhm, so if it is also possible with other phones, doesn't that
make the 6310/6310i just as vulnerable as any other phone that
is susceptible? As opposed to the 6310 being the most vulnerable.
