Busy Signal Service Targets Cyberheist Victims

Posted on 18:00 by Unknown
Merry day after Christmas. Hope you all had, or are having, a wonderful time with family and friends.
The following article is very interesting and just goes to show you what lengths the cyber crimminals are going to in order to steal your stuff.

To summarize the article up in just a few sentences, Cyber criminals are using a service to flood your cell phone and or land line with so many incoming junk calls that the number is unable to receive legitimate calls.  The service is marketed as a diversionary tactic to assist e-thieves in robbing commercial customers of banks that routinely call customers to verify large financial transfers. So while you are getting flooded with calls your accounts are being drained.

I hope you find this article as interesting as I did. Have a happy rest of the year and I'll be talking to you soon.
