>(SIM card transfer via social engineering)
How exactly does this happen?
- hu3 6y agoImpersonate as the client of the phone company and request a new SIM card under the pretense that your current SIM card was stolen/lost. Or bribe company staff to give you the SIM card. Phone company staff are error-prone humans just like you and me who in general don't earn well enough for their responsibilities.
- toby- 6y agoAha! I'm an idiot; I thought this referred to social engineering of the person who owns the handset/SIM, not phone company staff. That makes a lot more sense. Thanks!
