ESPECIALLY CHILDREN!

These crooks are getting very good!

A lady has changed her habit of how she lists her names on her

mobile telephone after her handbag was stolen.

Her handbag, which contained her mobile telephone, credit card,

purse, etc., was stolen.

Twenty minutes later she called her husband, from a pay telephone

telling him what had happened.

Her husband said, 'I have just received your text asking about our

pin number and I have replied a little while ago.'

When they rushed down to the bank, the staff told them all the money

was already withdrawn.

The thief had actually used the stolen mobile telephone to text her

husband in the contact list and got hold of the pin number.

Within twenty minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their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,

Mom, Dad, etc.

And very importantly, when sensitive information is being

asked for through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.

Also, when you are being text by friends or family to meet

them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the

message came from them.

If you do not reach them, be very careful about going

places to meet 'family and friends' who text you.

PLEASE PASS THIS ON.

I never thought about THAT!

As of right now, do you have 'home' named on the mobile?
