SIM swapping, or simjacking, is a covert hack where criminals deceive mobile providers to transfer your number to a new SIM card they possess, leading to potential identity theft and account breaches. To identify if you are a victim of SIM swapping, you should monitor your mobile network notifications for unusual activity and be wary of scams. If you suspect a swap, contact your provider immediately using verified contact numbers. It’s also important to review your account statements for unexpected charges that may indicate a hack.
If you receive a message asking you to get in touch, double-check that any number you are given is legitimate before calling.
Fraudsters may try to trick you out of information using fake notifications, so it's crucial to be vigilant.
