@cybersecuritygirl: 🚨 Scam Alert, This scary scam is on the rise. @yourbestiemisha just got a text from their husband’s number but it wasn’t him. This could’ve been SIM swapping or spoofing, and both are scary. 📱 SIM Swapping = A hacker takes control of your actual phone number by tricking your phone company 🎭 Spoofing = A hacker fakes your phone number to make it look like a call or text is coming from you How to tell the difference: ✔️ If your phone suddenly loses service and you’re locked out of accounts → SIM Swap ✔️ If your phone still works fine, but people get weird messages from “you” → Spoofing ⚠️ Either way, the hacker can impersonate you and try to scam your friends or family. Here’s how to protect yourself: ✅ Call your phone carrier ASAP if you suspect anything ✅ Use app-based 2FA instead of SMS codes ✅ Set up a safe word with loved ones so they know it’s really you ✅ Never share codes, passwords, or personal info over phone or text A quick safety check can stop a devastating scam.

I investigate these types of cases for a living. It’s really sad how they scare people into giving up their life savings.

or it was spoofed caller id? Which is way more common than Sim swapping.

Boomer's fall for this... example Andy Cohen got a call from some1 pretending to be his bank and said some1 tried to empty his account and they sent him a link that gave them access to his phone screen as he logged into his bank and they basically cleaned it out.

No, this sounds more like they just spoofed the number they were dialling from, there’s no evidence here that receiving calls or ownership of the number was transferred, although that can be a thing

A few years ago I was in my bathroom getting ready for work when my cell phone rang. It was my cell number calling my phone. I was calling myself on my phone. I never picked up. It happened 2xs

Yeah, that once happened to me and my mom years ago, I think in like 2018 we were eating dinner in the living room, but then she gets a call. She looks at her phone, looks at me, and it said that I was calling her (which was impossible because I remember at the time I didn’t have my phone on me. It was charging in the next room.) but anyway, it looked just like I was calling her and being curious my mom answered the call and I can remember this like extremely creepy breathing noise and then the call went dead and hung up on itself. Still gives me chills to this day.
