sim swap crime
I have heard that sim swap scams are becoming more prevalent. Someone gains access to your phone number from ATT for example, and then they can use the second factor Authorization to break into your bank accounts. Apparently, cyber crooks use social psychology methods on customer service reps at ATT (and other companies) to get your phone number transferred to their device. They claim they lost their phone, for example. I would like to know how they can gain access to your bank accounts if you never store user names and passwords on your phone's keychain. How do they know where you bank if you delete emails from your bank immediately upon reading them? How can they gain access to accounts with just your phone number?
