Thanks to BBC Online News for the Headline.
Large suitcases with “SMS Blasters” in them. In my day we used to get annoyed with “Ghetto Blasters”. Thankfully because the large suitcases being pulled along on the tube platform looked very suspicious, this scam was spotted. Within the suitcase was some sort of homemade electronic technology, probably based on a Raspberry Pi, which impersonates an actual phone tower.
Loads of people on the tube received texts saying that a parcel had been delivered to their house and to click on a link where they could retrieve it in exchange for a fee.A massive scam targeting a large amount of people. Some were bound to be fooled.
Apparently this scam is called “smishing” , well fraudsters , you were caught so you can “smish off!”
Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
