Phone Scam

Beware of cellphone banking lest someone hijack your account. Johnson livestock farm lost everything. Notify your phone provider not to transfer your account without written consent. That goes for anyone with access to your bank accounts.

I'd like to hear more details.

I opened a legit looking email two months ago. Had to change every card and bank account # and the hard drive after that one. All fraudulent purchases however didn't cost me thankfully.
Also thankful internet providers and financial institutions have a good handle on this stuff.

Can someone elaborate on this for me ?

Some funny stuff going on with data off phones being high jacked .
This is a major concern

Have read 'media' stories about chicom brands. True or not dunno.

Just watched the ctv news vid.

Get to your banks and put transfer caps on I guess.

Sorry I wish I knew more details, something about the SIM card being cloned or something, they think happened at an airport. Police are involved.
