If I remember correctly, it was pretty easy to intercept the communications. The Americans also dropped a few mirrors on the moon and the Soviets used them to fire lasers at the moon.

Not only intercept, but they could easily check if the signal was coming from the Moon.

What they couldn't do was get a photo of the ship.
