Click Here And Learn How To Avoid Scams Online
Scammers keep coming up with new and more creative schemes to steal your money or valuable data. If you stay updated on the new phone scam schemes you can protect your money and data from scammers. This new scam has the potential to outsmart all other types of fraud. The Better Business Bureau has already called it the most dangerous phone scam out there! So, if your own number calls you, never ever take the call!
Typically, the bad guys calling you from your own number introduce themselves as representatives from your mobile provider. They start by informing you that somebody has hacked your account. Then, they ask you to verify a few things. This sounds so trustworthy and people are already freaked out at the thought of their account being hacked that they willingly give up their personal data.
First and foremost, don’t answer the phone. There’s no way that “you” are calling yourself. Authorities also recommend signing up for the National Do Not Call Registry. And if you get unwanted calls, you can report them to the Federal Trade Commission.

SUMMARY
-Scammers can read you like a book and use their silver tongue to talk you into giving them information about your phone account and even your social security and credit card numbers.
-Criminals claim to be representatives from your mobile provider. They start by informing you that somebody has hacked your account and ask to provide your personal data to save your account.
-The Federal Communications Commission advises people to always verify callers claiming to be representatives of government agencies and other organizations. Also, be extremely cautious about the information you give to anyone calling you.
-Scams involving your local area code, repeated calls scam, the “Can you hear me?” scam are all pretty popular as well.
-Avoid talking to strangers on the phone if possible. Be attentive if you have picked up: listen for pauses after each time you say something, it’s most likely a robocall, so hang up.

I got a weird phone number and someone on the other line said “can u hear me” and I said “no” and hung up ?
Ihazicecream4 good bc Its not safe
Ihazicecream4 good so then if something requires voice authentication they can’t use “no”. They have to use “yes”.
caller: can you hear me?
Me: hello this is the [your area] police is there an emergency?
caller: oh sorry [hangs up]

I answer the phone and go to espanol
My phone used to belong to my dad’s friend and now I keep getting calls from numbers that I don’t know. I’ve had a bunch of home insurance calls and a few calls where no-one talks and they just hang up. And then there’s the occasional “yo where u at bro” text I get. I respond with “wrong number and delete the text page. I don’t have any personal info other than some passwords to a few accounts but I don’t own any credit cards or anything with money besides ITunes. I’m also 11 so that’s why.
That happened on my last phone someone wanting a job had it
I’m 8 I just don’t answer
Jessi Face I am 11 to
Same here
Same it’s like *if I want home insurance I’ll call home insurance*
Me: who is this
Hacker: yo mama
Me: *hangs up*
I once created a message to myself on purpose, tried it, and said hi then it said hi back, then I FaceTimed my own self, THEN IT MADE THAT VERY HIGH PITCH SPOUND THAT IM SURE ALMOST MADE ME LOSE HEARING.
DONT TRY IT GUYS.
I did it with my friend’s iPad on Skype. I called her then I picked up then I said hello then my pc said hello.
Ita someone else on your acount talking to you the owner.
Ivan Irani – EIS Grade 5 it’s because two microphones close to each other will cause feedback in the device playing the recorded audio.
does anyone get this call very often from these numbers (+41225083126) (+41225083078) (+41225083126) and so on whatever you do don’t pick up. But for real does anyone know what these numbers are ?
