Before trying to recover erased text messages from a cell phone
, it is important to note that you could actually damage and destroy the data on the cell phone if you attempt to use devices known as SIM card readers. Successfully obtaining the needed evidence you are looking for very rarely occurs when SIM card readers are used. The best and most effective way of recovering erased text messages and other forms of data that people tend to erase when they are cheating with someone else is a cell phone forensic investigation.
