q: How do people get your esn and phone number?
a: By unlawfullly monitoring the cellular frequencies and
decoding this information which is sent each time you make a call
or your phone answers a roll call request from the switch.
Q: Just how is this done?
A: Well as I said, by unlawfully listening, so since it is
unlawful, discussion of just how in partcular they break the law
is off topic on Fidonet.
Suffice it to say it is not a good thing to do.
