Cellular Phones/bcc texts

Question
Unfortunately, my wife has been sending and receiving text messages to a "friend."  I'm concerned their friendship is moving in the wrong direction.  Is there a way to put a BCC on his number that will come to my phone as well?  blackberry 8330

Answer
I'm afraid that there is not a way to put a BCC onto a text message (with any phone or any carrier). The only way to tell who she is texting (but not the content) is to view the numbers that were texted to and from via your bill (if you are the owner of the invoice, that is). I wish the best for you and hope that they are truly just friends and nothing more. DebiN
