Mobile Phone jamming "scam" in Scottish hotels exposed

Home > Security

Just as travellers thought that cell phones had finally saved them from outrageous phone rates when staying in a hotel, The Daily Record reports on a mobile phone jamming scam in Scotland.

The devices emit radio waves which wipe out the signal to mobile phones, rendering them useless. Mobile phone users have no idea their signal has been sabotaged, they simply think the area has no network coverage.

Thanks to businessman Ronnie McGuire, hotels, restaurants, bars and bed and breakfasts in Scotland are being flooded with high-tech phone jammers imported from Taiwan. McGuire promotes them on glossy leaflets, which state: "Harassed by mobile phones or hotel phone system not being used?"
