On November 24th rumors of a Tiger Woods affair surfaced, and on December 2nd, Us Magazine uncovered a panicked voicemail from Tiger Woods to his mistress, confirming the affair. In the voicemail, Tiger left 24-year-old Los Angeles cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs a panicked voicemail saying:

“Hey, it’s Tiger, I need you to do me a huge favor. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. So if you can, please take your name off that. Just have it as a number on the voicemail. You got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye.”

Apparently Jaimee Grubbs has no problem releasing information to the press about the affair including over 300 racy text messages, details of their encounters, and now this voicemail.

“I loved how we got along,” Grubbs tells Us Weekly. “But I knew, in the back of my mind, there could never be just us. There would always be the wife, or somebody else.”

This particular case doesn’t represent a breech in phone security, because Jaimee released these voicemails and text messages to the press willingly. But what this case should tell you is to be more careful with the types of voicemails and texts you’re sending. On the other hand, it’s not impossible for people to easily hack into a cell phone.
