The best way to intercept text messages of any cell phone is to use appropriate monitoring tools. This usually comes in the form of software which when installed onto any mobile phone will capture each and every message sent and received.  You will be able to read the content of the text message; see the cell phone number it is sent to or received from and also the date of the communication. In terms of sms spying there is nothing more you would need when you are intercepting someone’s text messages. Your alternative will be to use something called a sim card reader.

This device comes in the form of hardware and looks something like a memory stick. It works by placing the sim card of the cell phone into the reader and then you will plug this device into the USB port of the computer. The correspondences will then be available to you to peruse as you see fit. Depending on the capabilities offered you will be able to see more than the sms messages which were captured.

Is reading someone’s text messages through software illegal?

The answer to that question is yes and no. It depends on whose text messages you are intercepting. Typically employees and also children are ok because the user of the software will also be the owner of the cell phone. However, when dealing with your spouse or any other person then you may be threading a thin line. The best way to know whether you are using this technology legally is to speak to a legal professional. This is because laws vary from area to area and although some places will allow you to use such methods to spy on your partner others will not. Therefore to stay on the right side of the law you should ask a question.

Where do I get the tools to start my recording?

All of the software and hardware used to read text messages is available online. A simple search within a search engine usually brings up quite a bit of results. It might be a bit confusing especially when it comes to choosing the right app for the job. In terms of selection you should always look for an app that is compatible with the phone you wish to monitor and also it is from a good design house (e.g. retinax, Mobishore).Your average spy app will cost you between 50 to 100 bucks however a typical card reader will hit you for over 100 dollars typically.
