Crimes via Text Messaging

A woman has changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile
Phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell
Phone, credit card, wallet, etc.was stolen.

Twenty minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling
Him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking about our
Pin number and I replied a little while ago.'

When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money
Was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone
To text 'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within
20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

Moral of the lesson: do not disclose the relationship between you and the
People in your contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby,
Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc. ... And very importantly, when sensitive info
Is asked of you through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.

Also, when receiving a text from your friends or family to meet them
Somewhere that is not planned or usual, be sure to call back to confirm
That the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful
About going places to meet 'family and friends' who text you.
