What to do with unknown phone numbers you recognize
The rapid advancements in technology remain a double-edged sword for most of us. While the continuously updating world undoubtedly provides abundant opportunities and comfort, it also exposes us to this rapidly growing web of entangled individuals whose privacy and credentials are at stake. These days, scammers and hackers have all sorts of technologies and methods that they can use to exploit you. One such method is “Spoofing.”
Usually, while receiving calls from an unknown or suspicious source, people hesitate to answer it, which on their part is a smart practice. However, scammers use tactics like spoofing to tackle such issues. This enables them to mimic numbers into familiar or apparently ‘trusted’ numbers, making people respond to their calls or texts and get scammed.
