    Default yikes! i almost needed a new pair of underwear after reading this article

    The married man's girlfriend sent a text message to his cell phone: His wife was getting suspicious. Perhaps they should cool it for a few days.

    That's very interesting.

    My cell phone is so basic, it pretty much just makes calls and text messages. I find Blackberries to be excessive.

    Yeah, I saw this article too. It's getting to where us lying, conniving, sneaky SCJ husbands can't get away with anything anymore!

    Here's another thing to worry about that happened to me today. I took $100 out of the ATM this morning, and the bank called my house, where my wife answered the phone, to ask if it was a legitimate withdrawal! Some kind of random fraud prevention program from the bank. Fortunately, this was a normal withdrawal (for a legitimate purpose), and she called me to let me know about the call. It would have been much more interesting if it were a larger withdrawal, she hadn't called, and I came home with an empty wallet, and no explanation for where all the cash went!

    Doesn't your bill list every call made with the number? And even if you shred it, most carriers make it available online, FOR MONTHS.

    Let's be careful out there!

    This is precisely why I like Australia's privacy act, unless explicitly authorized, they can not talk to your spouse. This goes for cars, bills anything. If you don't explicitly put it in both names they can not talk to you about it. Even bank transactions on a joint account. My wife and I have a joint account, and even her internet banking code is different, and she has different billers listed for electronic tranasctions.

    Sometimes it is a pain, but not usually.

    True. What you describe would be an issue if the bill came to the house. My phone is company owned and I own the company. I OK the bill and it gets paid by my bill paying person.

    I never thought about the online aspect. I went to the providers website and it requires a user name and password. I may go ahead and register my number so that no one else can access the account online

    Sounds familiar....my phone is company owned, and I own the company. I OK the bill and it gets paid by my bill paying person too....EXCEPT...my bill payer is my wife! Yikes. My phone bil is 10 pages long anyway so it is never an issue, since all of my calls are "customers". LOL

    Actually just after posting I had a call from a company confirming that I had ordered some sim cards, and where they were to be shipped. It was all too easy, for someone else to intercept that info.

    It just surprised me after posting that this would happen.

    I hope the bank never calls and reports some withdrawls. Maybe I'll make their contact number for us my mobile number? Sure there are security reasons, but please, $100? Then again, both Empress and me Watch the internet trasactions closley.
