I joined a promotion listed in OzBargain a while a go for a 365 days Pre-Paid SIM for $20 a year for my 11 year-old son. I and my wife are the only two numbers in the world who actually who have his number, not even any of my son's friend (my son is autistic and and have no friend outside, he just know how to call us in case he got lost, he doesn't even know his own number!) but I found that he is constantly receiving hacker / telecom fraud SMS with link saying that "you have a parcel" or "is this your video blah blah blah".
I am quite sure that someone, may be some of the employee of that MVNO provider leaked that mobile to the criminals. Not only that, my number also started receiving such SMS, but not my wife's number, so I am 100% sure that they take my number from the 4mays1m database when I activate the SIM card.
What should I do about this?
Thanks.
You have an active imagination.
The spam calls/texts just use random numbers. Don’t get spooked, and no need to assume your suppliers are trying to get you.
