FlexiSPY has one brazen feature so bold, so stealth, and so controversial we must be careful how we advertise it. This super-secret feature we\u2019re talking about is Call Interception.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Call Interception refers to actually intercepting (patching into) live phone calls taking place on the Target phone, in real time as they happen. This is a feature of FlexiSPY\u2019s Mobile Spy Software<\/a> that automatically creates a stealth conference call, and is available on most Target phone networks.<\/p>\n

Intercept Call uses a pre-defined number called the \u201cMonitor Number\u201d, which you\u2019ll use for calling directly to the Target when it\u2019s on a call you want to silently join.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll know when the Target is on a call because the \u201cWatch List\u201d will send an SMS alert to your monitor number, letting you know when a call is connecting.<\/p>\n

You can receive the alerts either for all calls or only the selected Contacts you\u2019re waiting to intercept. FlexiSPY handles all of this discreetly behind the scenes, so there\u2019s nothing left in the Target\u2019s logs to show you were a participant on the line.<\/p>\n

Setting Up Call Interception<\/h2>\n

Setting up Intercept Call is easy.<\/p>\n

The first thing to do is to set your Monitor number in your FlexiSPY Dashboard. This is the number of the mobile phone you\u2019ll be using to \u201cpatch into,\u201d or Intercept phone calls on the Target phone with. This number is also used for making SpyCalls (listening to the phone surroundings) and for receiving SIM Change Notices by SMS. Define your Monitor Number in the Dashboard Control Panel<\/b>, under the Bugging Controls<\/b> menu.<\/p>\n

You can also Enable SpyCalls in the same menu area (discreetly listen to the phone\u2019s surroundings). When finished be sure to click the Sync Now<\/i> button, to send the changes to the Target phone. These settings are shown below.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\nNext we go into the Live Call Controls<\/b> and Enable Call Interception<\/i>.<\/p>\n

This setting is a slider button that we click to flip into the ON position. If you want to make a normal call to the Target again, simply flip this switch back to the OFF position. We recommend using a dedicated phone number as the Monitor number, and just leaving it on for whenever you need to use it for either Intercepting calls or listening to the surroundings with a SpyCall.
\nThen select Manage Watch List<\/b>. The Watch List will send you an SMS notice when a call is in progress, based on your settings here. If you only want notices to Intercept specific contacts, you can enter those phone numbers in the list and click to put a checkmark beside \u201cIntercept In Watch List<\/i>\u201d only.<\/p>\n

If you want alerts for all calls (incoming or outgoing), then it\u2019s not necessary to enter any specific numbers in the actual list. Just click to put a checkmark beside all<\/i> Watch List options to be notified of all connecting calls. You can see these options in the screenshot below.<\/p>\n

Choose Your Options<\/h2>\n

\"live-call-controls-showing-clearly\"<\/p>\n

Remember to click Sync Now<\/i> to send the change to the Target phone and save the settings.
\nThat\u2019s really all there is to it! It\u2019s important to know that if you\u2019re also recording calls (under the Call Controls<\/b> menu), Call Recording currently uses the same Watch List to determine which phone calls to record. So keep that in mind.<\/p>\n

How Call Interception Works<\/h2>\n

When you make either an Intercept Call or a SpyCall, this is a normal phone call you\u2019re making to the Target phone. It is not an Internet Call. The software running on the Target phone recognizes your Monitor number (from the settings you entered) so it knows when to answer automatically as a stealth call, without ringing, showing any Caller ID or keeping anything in the Target phone\u2019s call logs. The SMS alerts are sent directly from the Target but are also not kept in the SMS logs.<\/p>\n

Tips & Disclaimer<\/h2>\n

This means you need to mute your own mic<\/i> from the monitoring side to ensure no sound is heard on the Target end. During an Intercept Call, you are a direct participant on the line with both the Target user and the second party.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re listening live to something that really burns you up, it may be hard to keep composure. But remember, it is a stealth call and the other party will definitely hear you if you lose it and start cursing! A smart spy gathers evidence through surveillance and doesn\u2019t blow his cover.
\nThere are only a few requirements for Intercept Call to work:<\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  1. The Target phone needs service with a SIM card from a GSM network such as ATT, T-Mobile or others (not compatible with CDMA carriers that don\u2019t use SIM cards, such as Sprint or Verizon). If you\u2019re unsure which type of network the Target is using, simply call the carrier\u2019s customer service to ask. Basically, CDMA networks handle 3-way calling in a non-compatible way, and we use this service to create an automatic conference call to patch you into the call discreetly.<\/li>\n
  2. 3-Way Calling and Call Waiting both must be enabled on the Target service plan. These are standard features which are often enabled already, but if you\u2019re unsure then you need to check.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
