Scam Description
On april 22,2023. Suddenly around after 1pm cst i was unable to call my wife. So then i checked my phone and there was no signal stating no service. Then i checked with my service provider and they told me that my number has been ported to another service provider. And suddenly at the same time on my personal gmail there were lots of phising spam emails that had started coming in 50-100 per minute. I tried my service provider and it gave me my number back or helped me to fix this but they were no able to do it at all. So now i end up losing my phone number.
Then i started reporting all emails on my personal email as spam and tried checking if i can see and fraud email for my any account for any payment related transaction just as precautiin.
My phone number was: +16072978013
Service provider: “hello mobile”
My email was: rahulpareek2440@gmail.com
No i can still access my email but ended up losing my phone number. But i made sure to update my phone number with my wife number at all banks and whereever needed to be secured.
