dont understand bluejacking

[GuyverDX]

im not sure but but to blujack someone they need to have bluetooth activated right. this pretty useless then, since most people have bluetooth off and only turn it on if they wanna send or receive stuff, then its off again.
so i dont understand all the hype about this bluejacking/snarfing crap. unless u can still do these things without them having to activate BT please corect me if im wrong

Although its pretty useless heh..

Well when I have tried connecting my 6600 to my mates 6600 at the same time as having his connected to my PC I get a message saying "Unable to Connect: Maximum Number of Bluetooth Connections" (Or somethign like that!)

So i guess unless U have your bluetooth switched on and set to "Visible to all" then you are pretty safe. And if you have it connected to a headset, then they won't be able to connect because the maximum number of connections will already be established (ie ONE... to your headset!)

Bluejacking is all hype... you'll only get hacked if you "invite" it on yourself... (By turning your bluetooth on in a pub/public place etc and setting it to "visible to all") So don't worry...

Who worries? I'd love for someone to "hack" me while I'm out clubbing or whatever! It's a cool gimmick. I'd care less of someone downloads files or whatever from my phone.
