Next time if you get a missed call starting with +92; #90 or #09, don't show the
courtesy of calling back because chances are it would
lead to your SIM card being cloned. The telecom service providers are now
issuing alerts to subscribers -particularly about the series mentioned above as
the moment one press the call button after dialing the above number, someone at
the other end will get your phone and SIM card cloned.
According to
reports, more than one lakh subscribers have fallen prey to this new telecom
terror attack as the frequency of such calls continues to grow. Intelligence
agencies have reportedly confirmed to the service providers particularly in UP
West telecom division that such a racket is not only under way but the menace is
growing fast. "We are sure there must be some more similar combinations that the
miscreants are using to clone the handsets and all the information stored in
them," an intelligence officer told TOI.
