What is a SIM Swap scam? DoT India shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) and said, тАЬSIM Swap Scam is a dangerous fraud that targets your mobile number and digital identity.тАЭ In this SIM Swap scam, fraudsters can use your personal information, which they often gather from social media platforms, so that they may contact your telecom provider. Fraudsters claim your SIM card is lost and request a new one. Once the telecom operator issues the new SIM, the old one gets deactivated, and the fraudster gains full control of your new SIM card. So, how can you stay safe from Mobile Number fraud? To stay protected from such scams, avoid sharing personal details like date of birth, mobile number, or location on social media platforms. If you stop receiving OTPs or experience a sudden network loss, be alert. Add extra security to banking apps. If anything feels suspicious, report it at www.sanchaarsaathi.gov.in website.┬аAI Sex Video Blackmail Scam: 10 Malaysian Politicians Receive Emails Threatening To Leak Their Deepfake Porn Videos Unless USD 1,00,000 Paid; Police To Seek GoogleтАЩs Help in Probe.
