Technical Surveillance Countermeasures, sometimes called TSCM Sweeps, debugging, wiretap detection or just plain old “sweeps”.

Google the internet for mobile phone bugging and you will find many “offshore” providers that sell highly sophisticated cell phone spy software for usually less than a hundred bucks. Carefully read the advertising material posted on these sites and you will find that they guarantee that the spy on cell software can’t be found. They provide a detailed tutorial explaining how to remotely install phone spying software on a target phone.

If you choose to prosecute the offender, it’s recommended you employ an attorney to be your advocate in meeting with the U.S. Attorney, in your district, as this is happening to so many victims in the US they don’t have the staff to handle all the complaints. You can also sue civilly for damages. See PL 90-351, Title All in Investigations, Chapter 18, USC 2510-2520.
