Tech facilitates the users, but with this advancement, the number of mobile spams around is also increasing. As tech bloggers, our prime objective is to keep our readers updated on the latest online mobile spam. Online and mobile spam are problematic for almost all internet and mobile phone users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spammers and hackers target their victims in various ways. To keep yourself secure from these frauds, firstly, you should have some information about them and how you can avoid them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Avoid Online Mobile Spams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For this purpose, we are explaining to you some of the most common types of spam and the ways in which you can prevent them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>Phishing Messages Scams:<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These mobile spams are the most common. You randomly get a message that looks like a text from an old friend or someone who\u2019s in a problem and needs your help. They usually ask you to send them money, not a considerable amount; instead, they ask you to send them a nominal amount of $50- $100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common mobile spam message that people receive is a text message that seems like they are from your bank. These messages inform you about a false suspicious activity in your account. To<a href=\"https:\/\/techdisease.com\/avast-mobile-security-pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&nbsp;secure your account,<\/a> you have to call a certain number or visit a particular website to provide your essential details. People usually fall for this because no one wants to lose their money, and once they submit their information, the scammers loot them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>Cloning Mobile Spams:<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloning is a process that usually occurs when some criminals get hold of your cell number, and from that, they call you and attain your unique serial number. After getting this information, these criminals register another phone number in your name and start using it. This act is unsafe because it costs you an extra phone bill, and any involvement in criminal activity will get you into trouble. The most efficient way to avoid cloning is not to unnecessarily give your phone number. It is shocking to know that only 1,300 cases were reported between 2009-2012 in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>Scamming Apps:<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, we download random apps from the internet. And when you use that app, a message usually appears saying that you have violated their terms of rules and regulations and charge you a fine. Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quora.com\/How-do-I-resolve-the-hanging-problems-of-an-Android-phone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">phone gets hanged<\/a> until you pay them the fee. The best way to evade such a situation is by installing apps that are from a trusted app development company. By doing so, you can guarantee that the safety of your device cannot compromise. For downloading apps, you should always use Appstore or Play store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>One Ring Scams:<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The most routine mobile spams you can come across are the one-ring spams. These spams usually start when you get a suspicious phone call from an unknown number that only rings once. Once you call back on that number, it charges you heavily, as much as $19.95. This mobile spam usually takes place in the Caribbean region. Installing apps made by the best App developer in Melbourne is the best way to avoid this type of spam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to the advancement in smartphone technology, a user&#8217;s life has become easy.
