Eavesdrops (7,2)
I believe the answer is:
listens in
'eavesdrops' is the definition.
('listen in' can be a synonym of 'eavesdrop')
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for listens in that I've seen before include "earwigs" , "Intercepts messages" .)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Wall Street Journal, the Thinks.com and the Universal.
