Answer:

Bluejacking

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Bluejacking refers to sending unsolicited messages over bluetooth to bluetooth enabled devices.
  • These devices can be mobile phones, laptops, PDAs and other accessories with bluetooth in it.
  • The attacker sends unsolicited text messages, images and sounds in the bluejacking.
  • As bluetooth works in the range of meters in case of laptops or less in case of mobile phones , so bluejacking is possible only with the near by devices.
  • In order to bluejack a device, the bluetooth of the device has to be enabled, so to prevent a device from bluejacking simply turn off or invisible the bluetooth.
