Reply to Terr, Others on Phone Attack
This is unquestionably a form of phone harrassment, not an accident. It's been going on in different forms for a long time. What is recent is the ability of the attacker to jingle something in my room with the corded phone unplugged from everything. The computer is off, the lights are out and I am in bed. That has been the case thus far. The one ring comes and goes before I can locate the source of the sound. All I can do is try to describe it.
The computer is not unplugged from the outlet. I had not thought of that. I'll see what happens when I pull that plug. The attacker definitely has insider information. He managed to get my unlisted phone number years ago before the Internet and all the info available on it. He also seems to have hacked my email. To protect that I have installed Ontrack and ZoneAlarm (the free download) and I change my password more often.
In one phone conversation with MCI phone intelligence people, when I asked if there was a piece of equipment that could do this, I received the reply, "Yea, if you want to spend ten grand." Unfortunately, the call ended before I could get further info. So I know the hardware exists. What is it? Who makes it? And how do I defend against it?
Thanks for your help.
