Help. Do I have a hacker, a virus, or a Frankenstein Bluetooth?
Help. Do I have a hacker, a virus, or a Frankenstein Bluetooth?
My cell phone connected itself to my 2005's bluetooth, multiple times, and I can't explain it. I have an LG8100 phone.
I was sitting at my desk when I noticed the phone was dialing a number; I later saw that it was the last missed call. Now, mayyyybe, I moved the phone without realizing it and touched something that caused it to dial that number. But I don't think so. I didn't realize the phone was on bluetooth, so I was surprised when I heard a voice off in the distance. It sounded as though it came from a wall, or the TV (which was off) or my PC (which was off). It must have been coming through the walls from the garage.
Anyway, after that call, I looked at the phone and saw it was still connected to the TL. So I disconnected the bluetooth and put the phone back down on the desk. Less than a minute later, I saw the phone was connecting to bluetooth. But I hadn't done anything. I disconnected bluetooth, and the same thing happened again. I disconnected again and went back to what I was doing.
Another voice came through the air. I glanced at the phone and saw a screen that asked me to choose a command. Unfortunately, I didn't pay attention to the list of commands, and they were replaced by a timeout message. I hit "pwr/end" and then disconnected the bluetooth still again. A couple of minutes later, the voice again asked me to select a command and then the screen gave me a timeout message again.
Now Dr. Brown's cream soda may have some secret ingredients, but I don't think it has hallucinogens, and that's all I had to drink.
About 10 minutes have gone by since the last incident; so, maybe it's over.
Does anyone have a clue as to what might have happened (preferable serious ones, but entertaining ones are ok, too)?

On my phone I can have it pair with my car without answering yes to the pairing question. Just disable this feature and have it ask you each time for pairing to any Bluetooth devise.
