xSMS - "The contents of SMS messages are known to the network operator''s systems and personel. There, SMS is not an appropriate technology for secure communications. Most users to not realize how easy it may be to intercept."
(Source: Gartner, "Don''t Use SMS for Confidential Information)
Also, hardware to intercept GSM communications is readily available, and if you're texting to or from a foreign country, your data may not be as protected as you would expect.
The bottom line is that anything which is textually transmitted can be intercepted and read by a third party.
What about protection?
There is a way to render your SMS messages unreadable to everyone except the intended recipient - encrypt them, using the same level of encryption as on-line banking. Encrypt them before they leave your phone, and only decrypt them after they have been delivered to the recipient's phone.
All this is possible with Extended SMS - xSMS.
FEATURES:
Fully integrated with the existing SMS functionality of Windows Mobile 5 and 6
xSMS messages indicated in the Inbox with a ''Shield'' icon
Messages opened, replied to, forwarded and deleted in the usual way
xSMS messages created by selecting New -> xSMS from the Inbox menu

BENEFITS:
Keeps personal information personal
Allows confidential data to be sent with confidence, with many commercial applications
Makes message interception a futile excercise, as messages are illegible until successfully delivered and decrypted
Allows xSMS message to different recipients to be encrytped using different keys
