Ummmm this is the first time i have heard this but then again i have only had my BB for a lil over a month... now i am aware that if you are being charged for a crime of some sort and they have a warrant that allows them to aquire this information they can have your Service Provider give them a print out of your call and text logs... but again this requires a valid warrant...


dont believe everything you hear...theirs alot of mis-informed individuals out there... Welcome to Crackberry!!

[amazinglygraceless]

Heard from where?
Who in the h3ll is they?
How are anyone's text messages tied
to their home address?

A bit more critical thinking, a bit less
paranoia might be in order. Unless of
course you've been hanging out with
Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.

Or as patrick.waugh said and I paraphrase:

Don't type anything on your BB that
you don't want to see on a 4'x4'
whiteboard, from the witness stand.

And they went deep on that guy.
Texts from like five years ago. DAYUM!!

[mlevergood]

so even the SP can pull what you actually SENT in a txt.. not just who you sent it to?

That must be a HUUUUUGE database...

[amazinglygraceless]

One of you two are going to owe a keyboard if you keep it up.

[jenaywins]

Wait a second... what now??! Where would you even hear something like this?

Hah.. That is ridiculous.

Yes they can, with proper authorization. But that's the key.

Also, each provider determines for how long they will store messages.
Some less than two weeks, some a year. His provider was on what
I think could be called the "in perpetuity" schedule.

guess he was just trying to scare me or something huh? what a dweeb...

[daddybear]

dump him...

LOL ya dont mean to be rude or out of line but i think he maybe just a little insecure if hes trying to scare you about being able to read your texts...

[amazinglygraceless]

Or maybe it's a classic case of transference. He's knows he has nothing to worry about from you, but the skeletons in HIS closet would embarrass a museum.

[IMmobile06]

I agree. That's a little strange! Dump him!

[Rose6446]

Text messages maybe but definetly not emails. It's encrypted and nobody can decrypt it (except the owner BB)...still I dont know if they can see exactly what msg you sent or just the fact that you sent a msg to a certain person at a certain time...

They can not only see who you sent the text to, but the content of that text.
Every
Single
Word
That's what the whole Detroit Mayor reference is about.

[raegann]

and typing in my address, right?

[Realestatepro]

AG is right thats how the mayor was found guilty due to references made in text messages he sent not months before but YEARS before.... so ya they can def see everyword if they need to...technology can be our best friend, and worst enemy!

They can decrypt them... If they are super 1337

This thread had several current AT&T employees
weigh in on the issue. Maybe it'll help clear
things up for you a bit.
