Danger of SMS 1 Year ago Karma: 1  
This lady has change her habit on the hand phone after her handbag was stolen.

Her handbag which contain her mobile, credit card, purse..etc....was stolen. 20min later when she called her hubby, telling him what happened. Husband says "I've just received your SMS asking about our Pin number. And I've replied a little while ago".
When they rushed down to the bank. Bank staff told them all the $ already been withdrawn. The pickpocket have actually use the stolen handphone to sms "hubby" and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 mins withdraw all the money from the bank account.

So please remember, try not to disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using name like Home, Honey, Hubby, sweetheart, Dad, Mum etc...... and very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked thru SMS, CONFIRM by calling back.
