Uncovering lies in the SpyPhone world.

You’ve seen it before, a website absolutely loaded with practically an army of «as seen on — NBC, CNN, FOX NEWS, BBC, CSNBC, BB — these sites seem to have half their page filled with these logo’s and often times, the logo’s don’t lead anywhere, there was never any article written about that website to begin with, it didn’t even have permission to use the logo of that site. You may have recently heard about Samsung’s Astroturfing fiasco where Samsung was hiring contractors to write forum posts that praised Samsung devices, trashed competitors, and downplayed bad news. While that’s definitely not cool, it doesn’t come close to the lies going on in the SpyPhone world.

Why the logo jacking

The reason why companies are now logo jacking is to exploit the theory of social proof. Social Proof is basically this: if you see a person do something safely and successfully, you’ll feel more secure in doing that same thing. Where doubts might have been, they are no longer as prevalent when you see that the action it is possible. The problem occurs when the social proof is bought, or faked, then this proof is no longer accurate, and people are being lied to — problems start happening.

Examining mSpy’s social proof

Now with this understanding of what logojacking is, we’ll take a look into the SpyPhone realm to see if there’s any logojacking going on. The site being looked at will be mSpy, starting with the business testimonials banner on their home page.

Here’s A Picture of Their Banner

This banner references CNN, CNBC, The New York Times, and BBC. It also shows off some customer testimonials, from three guys.

The Cues of Scam Sites

There are cue’s that prospective customers on a product site should take into consideration when trying to determine if the product is legitimate or not.
Things to look out for,

• A forged Better Business Bureau assurance Seal leading to a real looking report
• A warranty that was too good to be true
• False business location information
• Forged newsclips from professional magazines
• Impossibly exaggerated Company sales statistics
• Universally positive, hyperbolic customer endorsements

knowing this, I started to research the testimonials located on the mSpy page.

I first tried to click on the images in the banner to read the supposed articles about mSpy, but I was unable to, turns out it was just a banner image that someone put together with photo editing software. So, I searched for each individual reference to try to find the supposed articles, manually.

The affiliated logos search

CNN – I searched the CNN website with the Keywords: mSpy to try to find any related article. I was unable to find any article mentioning mSpy.

The New York Times – I searched the NYT website with mSpy but was unable to find any article mentioning mSpy. A list of Spy articles were the result of the search, but none of those articles mentioned mSpy.

CNBC – Searching the CNBC website, I couldn’t find any article that linked to mSpy.

BBC — I searched the BBC website, and I couldn’t find any article that mentioned mSpy.

CrunchBase – I searched the CrunchBase website and found that mSpy created a profile on the CrunchBase website. While CrunchBase doesn’t directly reference mSpy, and putting the logo of CrunchBase on the mSpy testimonial section IS misleading, it doesn’t qualify as logojacking.

What it means

mSpy hasn’t been mentioned in any of the corporations that they claimed they had been referenced in. The only website that I was able to find mSpy information on was CrunchBase, where mSpy created a corporate profile.

Customer Testimonials

mSpy also features several customer testimonials. The reviews look like they might be legitimate, although it should be noted that it’s very common for companies to outsource people to write reviews for them, and we’ve seen that mSpy has a track record for faking references – So, it’s not out of the question. If the customer testimonials ARE in fact legit, then kudos to them. Otherwise, with their history of lies, prospective customers might want to think twice.

Learn How To Spy On An iPad

Let’s take a closer look at how to spy on an iPad. Why? Because whether it’s a an employee or your own child, we all use phones and tablets in different ways, and often for different things. If the person you want to monitor has an iPad, you NEED to be spying on it — even if you are already monitoring their smartphone.

400 Million Devices and Counting

There are an estimated 400 million iOS activated devices. But these devices are most popular with a widely divergent group

• Parents
• Single Men
• Career Builders Over 25
• Pet Owners
• Casual Gamers

It’s also highly notable that nearly half of all US Teenagers are now active on tablets with 68% of these being iPads. iPads are now common in every café and all other social spaces. It seems impossible to pry them away from anyone’s addicted hands. Until now if you needed monitoring software for an iPad, your choices were limited and the features were not very attractive.

FlexiSPY offers truly unique monitoring designed for how people actually use an iPad. We realized the other guys were only repackaging their same old iPhone software with half the features disabled for iPad, and little else to be excited about. This provided an opportunity for another FlexiSPY first, FlexiSPY for iPad.

Spy on an iPad to hear and see exactly how it’s being used — pre-recorded and in real time. Basic capture logs are where the other guys’ software ends, but this is where FlexiSPY only begins!

Remote Listening And Viewing

With FlexiSPY for iPad you’ll have many of the same monitoring features available with our iPhone software. All features are initiated remotely and are completely discreet. The target user is never interrupted from what they’re doing and won’t notice a thing.

Listening tools include recording the ambient environment on demand, as well as quietly using the iPad’s camera to take your own remote pictures whenever you wish. If you take a picture and see something interesting, turn on Ambient Recording to capture the conversation.

Is it Live or Memorex?

True audiophiles old enough to remember these commercials often preferred TDK. But Memorex wanted us to believe it was live, and with FlexiSPY that is exactly what you’ll get. FlexiSPY’s live listening features aren’t offered anywhere else, and this time we’ve outdone ourselves by offering a live camera feed to go with it.

SpyCam is an iPad only feature that works similar to the SpyCall in our smartphone version, but also adds a live feed from the camera! SpyCam uses a FaceTime account to make a discreet FaceTime call to the iPad you’re monitoring, which is answered discreetly and allows you to see and hear the immediate surroundings in real time.

While connected to the stealth SpyCam session you’ll see the video and hear the audio live, but the Target can’t see you. The software is also constantly snapping pictures and sending these back to your online account. Want it recorded at the same time? Simply send a command from your online Dashboard – no cassette tape needed.

An All-In-One Solution

While SpyCam and FlexiSPY’s live listening features are the pearls in this ocean, all other standard logging features continue to keep you updated and informed. FlexiSPY for iPad also captures all photos and videos, web URL’s, Email, Facebook, Line, Skype, Viber, WeChat and iMessage IM’s, along with Notes, Calendar entries and all address book Contacts. Combined with Location tracking, you’ll not only know what is being said and done, but you’ll also know exactly when and where. With FlexiSPY for iPad no matter how it’s being used, you can spy on an iPad as if you were there yourself.

Picture This,

Your kid is chatting with friends on Facebook when a message suddenly appears from someone your child doesn’t know. Is your child going to find you and tell you that a stranger is talking with them, or is your child going to reply to learn more about this mysterious person? erm… What do you think?

Thankfully there’s a solution to almost every problem, and if you follow our guide through these Important steps, you’ll have the knowledge to ensure your kids are safe and secure on the internet.

Tip #3 — You need to know their Facebook Privacy Settings

Is your home address listed on your child’s Facebook? What about their cell-phone number, or maybe the school they go to?

Here’s a guide to setting up Facebook privacy correctly.

10 Privacy Settings every Facebook User Needs to Know

Tip #4 — Where is the computer? Placement is Key

Designate a central place in the house for the computer

If your child knows he/she is being monitored by everyone walking past the computer screen, they’ll be more careful about the sites they visit. If the computer is in their room behind closed doors, they are more likely to visit nefarious websites or chat with strange people that could put them in danger.

Tip #5 — Find out what they’re doing on their SmartPhones NOW or you’ll regret it later

Children and Teens are now starting to use Smartphones more often than computers for internet activities.

Any parent that’s serious about keeping their children safe on the internet will be monitoring their cellular device. Today’s youth are using smartphones for just about all of their social media activities. In-fact, there’s a mass-exodus taking place with & social media on computers. Teens are now switching over to popular messaging apps ONLY available on SmartPhones, and are increasingly no-longer using the computer for their social needs.

A Phone is Ultra-Private, if its not in your teens hand, its in their pocket. Trying to figure out what they’re up up to on their mobile phone is nearly impossible… Unless you use a monitoring solution.

Here’s The Deal

There are TONS of smartphone monitoring apps available on the marketplace, and most of them suck. Before you pull out your credit card, you need to make sure that the software will monitor every aspect of their mobile device – their text messages, pictures, email, Facebook, LINE, WhatsApp, Instagram – everything. Then, you need to make sure that it will do the monitoring invisibly. Do a little research and if the features are there, go ahead and start monitoring your kids phone, the longer you wait, the more information you’re losing out on. Our software has loads of reviews from industry experts, try finding a review for a competitors site and you’ll easily see the difference between us and the rest.

A good monitoring software will have a money back guarantee, so there’s nothing you can really lose by trying it out. We have a great monitoring solution, that we’re extremely proud of, and that you can try today -10 day money back guarantee included.

Success is a matter of learning from the best

When it comes to the use of military strategy, there are no greater masters than Sun Tzu or The Mossad.
«By Way Of Deception, Thou Shalt Do War» or “All War Is Based On Deception”. Claimed to the motto of the venerable Israeli Spy Agency and the most famous Chinese General of all time respectively, these quotes are received wisdom for generations of leaders for whom failure is not an option
No surprise then that FlexiSPY takes direct inspiration from these masters. After all, it is spy software, designed to uncover secrets from smartphones and iPads. Let’s look at Spoof SMS for example,
FlexiSPY Spoof SMS feature was specifically designed to use deception to manipulate someone into a situation where you can turn information into a real action plan.

Here’s how it works

After FlexiSPY’s mobile spy software is installed on an Android or iPhone device, you can create an SMS message and secretly force the cellphone to send it to any phone number you want. The person receiving the SMS thinks its coming from the person that owns the phone — in fact, it’s a message that YOU have forged to control their next move
How is this useful?

For example, you may already use FlexiSPY and find your child is getting calls from a number you don’t recognize. Or perhaps you see your your son or daughter discussing illicit topics with their friends or even strangers. Now imagine you could send a reply SMS to the number that seemed to come from your child.
Log into the FlexiSPY control panel and create a spoof SMS message such as, «Ok, I’m coming. Where shall we meet» and it will be sent from the target device, luring the predator, drug dealer or bully to a place you choose. Protect your family with Spoof SMS from FlexiSPY*.

That’s it! The next time the device connects to FlexiSPY server, it will pick up this spoof request and the SMS will be sent from the target device to the recipient that you specified.
Like these great strategists, Spoof SMS is a way to use deception to defeat the enemy

How To Send Spoof SMS

To send a spoof SMS, go to the Control Center and enter the number of the recipient and the message to be sent.

Here’s an example of using the spoof SMS feature

1. Go to your Control Center and select «Spoofing Controls».
2. Select «Send a spoof SMS» from the list of available spoof features.
3. Enter the number of the recipient and the message to be sent using the form on the page.
4. Click «Send Spoof SMS Now».

That’s it!

The next time the device connects to the FlexiSPY server, it will pick up this spoof request and the SMS will be sent from the target device to the recipient that you specified.

*FlexiSPY does not condone the use of violence or any illegal activities. Always consult a lawyer before using FlexiSPY.

Smart phones are popular because they have great apps. And, guess what? There are apps that let you know when someone has taken a sneak peak at your phone. Let’s see why it’s important to have a spyphone.

Android and iPhone Apps For Spyphones

• HiddenEye is available for Android phones and detects failed attempts to enter the lock screen passcode.

It snaps a pic of the person trying to sneak a peek at your phone. Hello, you’re on candid camera!

For iPhone owners, there’s WhoSnooped.

The developer of this app has a great sense of humor. Not only does the app snap the phone snooper’s pic, but it also displays a banner telling them to “Stop Snooping”.

For the real forensic sleuths out there, there’s iTrust. This app records a video of all unauthorized actions on your phone and even fingerprints any intruders.
