People in Nanjing have received taxi records from Beijing on their mobile phones. What happened? How to prevent it?

People are clearly in Nanjing, but the mobile phone has received the consumption record of taking a taxi in Beijing. Something that sounds incredible happened to Mr. Zhao in Nanjing. If the police hadn't finally figured out the suspect's modus operandi, Mr. Zhao would never have thought that his personal information was leaked from the live webcast. What the hell is going on here? How can we prevent such problems every day?

One morning in the middle of June 5438+ 10 this year, Mr. Zhao found that his mobile phone received a strange message, which turned out to be the taxi fare of 182 yuan the night before. The place of consumption is in Beijing, but he has obviously been in Nanjing, which makes Mr. Zhao puzzled.

Mr. Zhao said that his mobile phone has never been lent to others and has not been lost recently. At the suggestion of the police, Mr. Zhao inquired about the recent consumption records, only to find that the original consumption was more than this taxi fare.

Mr. Zhao said that he often receives verification codes from some shopping platforms or financial institutions, but he has never downloaded these apps, let alone used the money.

After investigation, the suspect logged into a shopping platform by directly entering the mobile phone number and verification code, and then overdrawn the owner's account by using the white strip function of the platform.

Second, how did the suspect commit the crime? 1In early October, the police arrested four suspects in Hainan. Wu Mou, the suspect, confessed that he entered the homepage when Mr. Zhao was playing a live game, then entered Mr. Zhao's mobile phone number on the shopping platform and directly logged in with SMS verification code for consumption.

At this time, Mr. Zhao remembered that he had played live games and left his mobile phone number on the live broadcast platform. Due to his concentration during the live broadcast, he didn't notice the prompt information of the verification code at all.
