How does it work?
1 A
new fraud called SIM SWAP has started. Your phone network will momentarily go
blind / zero (No Signal / Zero Bars) and after a while a call will come
through.
2 The
Person on the other end of the call will tell you that he is calling from (your
cell phone company) depending on your network and that there is a problem in
your mobile network.
3 He
will instruct you to please press 1 on your phone to get the network back. Please
at this stage don't Press anything, Just cut or END the call or even switch off
your phone for a while. If you press 1, the network will appear suddenly and
almost immediately go blind again (Zero Bars) and by that action, your phone is
#HACKED. Within a second they will empty your bank account, and you won't
receive any alert.
What you will
experience?
It
will appear as though your line is without Network, meanwhile your SIM has been
SWAPPED. The danger here is that, you will not get any alert of any
transactions, so please those of us doing USSD Banking and Mobile Banking
BEWARE. Let's be very careful.
Please,
share this to your contacts, loved ones and friends. The fraud is increasing
day by day. Received from a Cybersecurity
Group
