What extra data is stored on a camera phone photo?

I posted a picture taken on my phone on an online image-board and shortly after wards i started recieving prank calls relating to the image. Does a photo from a phone store any data relating to the phone number, etc?

They knew my name aswell which was kinda freaky.

ThanksWhat extra data is stored on a camera phone photo?
Nope, pictures have no such data. That's probably because you posted yoru phone number or name on the account where the pictures were.



Camera phones only store date and time of picture taken. Some newer ones have even more data such as megapixels, zoom, flash, focus, exposure time, geodata, ISO, meter mode, dpi, focal length.....

Well you get the idea :)

But that's only the high end/expensive cellular phones(SonyEricsson and Nokia) who do such things.
