"Mobile" Scammers

Financial pyramids, popularly called lohotrons, now there are "charitable" transfers - fantasies of swindlers do not have limits and boundaries. No matter how many people say at all "corners" that free cheese lies only in a mousetrap, new victims still come across different adventurers and scammers. Every person can get to the number of injured, even if he is the most cautious (as they say, and an old woman happens to have an accident). But with the expansion of the field of activity of such adventurers, the chances of this increase. More recently, scammers have well mastered a new field of activity - cellular communication. It does not say and does not mean primitive cases of "divorce for money", i.e. The subscriber receives an SMS-notification from the unknown and unknown number: "replenish the balance" of the presented number or immediately call back to the phone number indicated in the SMS-message, there are more sophisticated, cunning tricks in the arsenal of mobile scammers.

An early Saturday morning student Valentina Semenyutina received a call - it was a young man. He asked in a polite and representative voice whether she had any complaints about her cell phone company. In connection with the fact that the complaints of subscribers have become much more frequent. Hearing that the girl does not have pritenzy and she is happy with everything, stated about the obligatory need to "test the SIM-card of the phone". To do this, he needed to call him back from a fixed (home) phone by the federal number, having calmed down the girl beforehand: "Do not worry, the call is free!". At the other end of the line, the same young man answered. Valentina with his words dialed on the mobile a complex combination of numbers, then dictated the code that she saw on the phone screen. Immediately she received an SMS message with the following content: "You have successfully transferred 300 rubles. To the subscriber's account (hereinafter, the subscriber's number) ". A naive question arose: "What was that?", But there was no one to ask, the phone rang in the receiver. And the next month Valya received another account from her telephone company for long-distance calls.

"Now Valentine takes a cautious call, when they call from unknown numbers."
