Smartphone users are at risk, as they can be blocked even by sending a simple message and even by a number that may be in our mobile contacts.
It is enough to press a simple button on a seemingly innocuous electronic link, and our personal data becomes part of the blueprint for the malicious intentions of strangers who hide behind the anonymity of the chaotic online world.
Epidemic of Internet scams! What should you watch out for?
As simple as technology has made our lives, it is just as easy to destroy it. Sensitive data, credit and debit cards, email, ID and driver's license are now on our mobile phone.
Hacking our mobile phone can be done very simply by sending a message from one of our contacts, which contains a dangerous link.
Clicking on this link installs the software and starts tracking which includes:
– Call logs
– Internet browsing history
– Saved passwords
– Contacts, messages, photos, mail
– Call recording
-Remote microphone listening
– Remote screenshots
But what should we be careful not to let smart people have access to our mobile phone?
We must be very careful in what we allow to be installed on our mobile.
So we never click on an unknown or strange link. If we notice that our mobile is not working properly, we reset it to factory settings, while if the battery runs out quickly, we should worry.
What we pay attention to on our mobile phone:
– We do not click on unknown or strange links
– Reset the mobile phone to factory settings
– Beware of rapid battery discharge
If we suspect that our mobile phone has been hacked, only qualified technicians can provide a solution to our problem, who will clean our device from malicious software.
