How SMS Bombs Mobile Phone Numbers

In daily life, users are required to fill in the verification code when logging into major websites. /kloc-What should I do if I receive 100 "verification code" messages within 0/0 minutes? Is this still an ordinary "verification code"? Mr. Zhang from Beijing told users with personal experience that these short "verification codes" will also affect people's normal lives. Recently, Mr. Zhang received a message called "Alipay SMS check code, please don't disclose it" on his mobile phone. At first, Mr. Zhang believed it and prepared to change the password. Later, after receiving five verification codes beginning with 106, and even after receiving a phone call to broadcast the verification codes manually, Mr. Zhang found himself being maliciously harassed. In the next ten minutes, Mr. Zhang's mobile phone received more than 100 short messages with various verification codes, so Mr. Zhang had no choice but to turn off his mobile phone. Even so, the shadow of being harassed by spam messages still haunts Mr. Zhang's mind. (Image from the Internet) The power of these "verification codes" information is so great, so how did criminals send hundreds of short messages in such a short time? Yang Qibo, a security expert of Tencent's mobile phone housekeeper, analyzed that it is very likely that criminals used "verification code bombing software" to commit crimes. Criminals can easily download the "verification code bombing software" on the Internet. As long as you enter the mobile phone number to be attacked in the software and set the sending time of the short message, the software will start sending verification code short messages to the designated number. In this way, what should users do when they are bombarded by spam messages in their daily lives? Yang Qibo, a security expert of Tencent's mobile phone housekeeper, reminded that when users encounter similar incidents, they should keep short message records, complain to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and telecom operators, and report the case to the public security organs in time, and punish the suspects through the public security organs. In addition to the indiscriminate bombing of batch verification code messages, users often encounter harassment and fraud messages such as illegal loans, school newsletters and advertising sales in their lives. In this regard, Yang Qibo, a security expert of Tencent's mobile phone housekeeper, suggested that users install Tencent's mobile phone housekeeper to identify and intercept harassing and fraudulent short messages. It is reported that Tencent housekeeper relies on QQ WeChat's unique social data, Tencent's secure cloud library and 800 million users' manual tags to accumulate massive security data and realize accurate identification and interception of harassing and fraudulent short messages. It is precisely because of the advantages of Tencent's security data that Tencent Mobile Manager cooperated with Apple last year to realize the malicious call interception and calendar advertisement cleaning functions of iOS. At the same time, at the WWDC20 17 conference, Tencent Mobile Manager and Apple once again joined hands to add fraudulent SMS recognition function to iOS 1 1. Apple official website described this function as: "You can download third-party apps such as Tencent Mobile Manager to detect possible spam and isolate such information in a separate folder."
