"Mom, it's my new number" scam: how to spot and protect loved ones
The scam begins with a text message: "Mom, it's my new number." The perpetrator then asks to communicate only through a messenger app, followed by claims of an urgent problem requiring an immediate wire transfer to a provided account. The victim thinks they're helping their child — in reality they're sending money to a criminal.
