    SIM Swapping

    SIM swapping is a cyberattack where scammers trick mobile carriers into transferring a victim?s phone number to a new SIM card controlled by the attacker. This allows them to bypass two-factor authentication, access sensitive accounts like cryptocurrency wallets, and steal funds. It?s a growing threat to personal and financial security in the crypto world.
