Bluejacking(legal or illegal you decide)

Explanation

1. Get your hands on a Bluetooth-enabled device mobile phone.

2. Create a new phone book contact, with the message you want to send
to someone in the 'Name' field. e.g. 'I like the look of your
cappuccino'.

3. Go to a busy place (Busy shopping centre, High Street, On a train/
tube / bus, Cinema, Cafe/ restaurant/ pub, Mobile phone shop,
Electronics shop, etc..).

4. Select the contact you made earlier, and choose 'Send via Bluetooth'.

5. Your phone will search for other Bluetooth devices roughly 10
metres around you. It will either list available devices, or say none
could be found. If it doesn't find any, choose another spot.

6. Your phone will list the names of devices in range. Sometimes the
names will give you a clue to the model of phone.

7. Select one of these devices listed for your phone book contact to be sent to.

8. If all goes well, your contact will be sent to the selected device.

9. If you can, try to casually look around you and see if you spot
anybody with a bluetooth enabled phone/device nearby looking truly
puzzled. It would help greatly if you know which phones have Bluetooth
and which don't. This way, you can eliminate anybody who is looking
at, say, their Nokia 3310 which doesn't have Bluetooth.

10. The rest, as they say, is up to you.

In case it all goes wrong: If you manage to identify your victim and
they are looking angry rather than puzzled & confused, jellyellie's
advise is to run, not walk, in the opposite direction!

The Reveal: 'The Reveal' is what it all comes down to in the end. It
is what your messages have been building up to, and it's certainly the
climax of your exchange. If you know who your victim is, when it's
time for you to leave the area send them a contact saying something
like ''Listen out for 'parrot''. Then, as you walk past them, say
(loudly) to yourself ''I hope my parrot will be OK!'' That will
definitely get their attention.

Have fun. Stay out of trouble though:-)
