Can the FBI listen to your phone calls?
Cell phone tapping is when someone gains access to your phone without your permission in order to listen in on your phone conversations. Any phone can be tapped. In the U.S., the FBI is allowed to tap a person’s phone if the individual is suspected of being part of an organized criminal entity or a terrorism ring.
Can you tell if your phone is tapped?
If you hear pulsating static, high-pitched humming, or other strange background noises when on voice calls, it may be a sign that your phone is being tapped. If you hear unusual sounds like beeping, clicking, or static when you’re not on a call, that’s another sign that your phone is tapped.
