Right. I guess the thing is I don't know how one spends 100s on SMS messages.

I guess that also means you either need the SIM card or an unlocked phone?

Premium SMS messages (to a thief-controlled destination) cost 2-3 (or whatever) each, and they send hundreds of SMS messages as soon as they can.

Yes, they need an unlocked phone, that's why they grab the phone while you're using it.

Android recently added protection to auto-lock if it detects sudden acceleration.

Ah, makes sense. Thanks!
