Pour ceux qui disent qu'ils n'ont rien à cacher et donc à craindre quand on leur signale la quantité d'informations qu'ils partagent sur internet, voici le swapping :
"Après avoir recueilli suffisamment d'informations, le fraudeur contacte l'opérateur téléphonique en se faisant passer pour la victime...Il prétend généralement avoir perdu son smartphone..., et demande que son numéro soit transféré sur une nouvelle carte SIM...
"Comment reconnaitre les signes...?
-perte soudaine du service mobile,
-recevoir des notifications de connexion depuis des appareils inconnus...
