Please Login to Remove!

Is there a way a person can see or get all of the information that run thru your phone.... I have 2 gmail address the run thru my phone, I also txt.......

I swear I think my wife is some how getting all of my email and txt from my blackberry phone.......

And then she come back around and ask me like she doesn't know....
but at the same time, its something I just spoke to about....

Hell, she may be even reading this...............

really seriously considering getting rid of my phone and any digital devices and just receive call at home or at work......

Is your BB through work or is it your personal BB? Do you get your work (outlook) email on your phone?

Maybe she has access to your gmail account?

Regardless, she is your wife, why don't you just ask her, unless of course you are trying to hide something from her

If I ask and she is in fact spying do you really think she will tell the truth.......

When she ask question though, I do tell the truth, she may not like the answer but o well......

But the fact that she's spying on me is what bothers me.....

If someone backed up your phone and then restored it to another phone, wouldn't they in essence have all or get all of your email and txt info(including passwords.....)

simply check your access history of gmail and keep it on a piece of paper. Turn off access from phone to make it easier to track.

just change your passwords to make sure she does not know them...it would be very difficult for her to "spy" on your BB unless she is looking at it while you are in the shower or something...which brings me to...put a password on your bb and make sure it is locked while you are away from your phone (shower, gym, whatever...).

password protect your BB and change your pw on all your accounts.....check on the VZW family site if there is a way she can spy on texts and what not like if you were a kid and she has your phone on some sort of lock down

She might be going on the verizon website and signing in. She may be able to read your texts that way. Most carriers offer websites where one can see the bill, who you text, what time you text, possibly what you text, etc.

Do you have stuff to hide? We have an unwritten that neither of us goes through the others phone. Wife knows that I could at anytime check, but I choose not to and she does the same.
But again, nothing to hide

Augustus, as the others said:

Change the passwords on your gmail and don't write them down anywhere, and don't make them something she can guess, like your kid's name, or your dog's name.
Password protect your BlackBerry, using a password that's not easy to guess but is easy for you to remember. Set the Security Timeout to a short time.

If you use the VZW website for checking your account, change the password on it, too.

If you think she might try to look at your BlackBerry back up files on the computer (which requires some effort and a special program), password protect your user account on the PC.

So basically you two have an agreement that either of you will not go thru the other person phone, but yet at the same time,

You do go thru her phone........

Wouldn't that be betraying her trust and going behind her back........ and on top of that, flat out lying to her...............

The fact that neither of you have nothing to hide so pointless and meaningless if you still feel the need to go behind her back and check up on her.

We to had the same agreement, and just like you, I get the feeling that she has somehow done the exact same thing that you have done to you SO.

I do not go thru her phone, if someone calling her I do not answer it, if its ringing I do not bother it, If she did have something to hide, I do not want to know. I expect and require the same amount of respect.
