How can I listen in on cell phone conversations?

Answer by  phoenix85 (366)

It is illegal to listen in unannounced on cell phone conversations. There can sometimes be feedback that can be picked up by CB radios, but that is very rare. There are laws against listening in to conversations uninvited, I would implore you to find another way to spend your time.

You can pick up ANALOG cell phone conversations with an ordinary scanner found at places like Radioshack. Unfortunately, analog service has been shut down by nearly every carrier and few (if any) people use it anymore. Digital cell signals which are used now and encrypted and cannot be easily listened.
