“Friday I just got off work, actually I did it a little early, and I’m going to meet my friends so we can leave for Pelion! After 7 whole months I managed to escape for a weekend. Looking at the clock I realize that I still have a little time to get a coffee for the road. I stop outside Veneti and get out. I come back, put the car in gear again and go to gather my friends to leave. I arrive at the meeting point, they get in and we start the journey. They ask me in surprise why I can’t hear my phone and where I put it and other such jokes. I realize that I really have no idea where my phone is, despite this I’m sure I spoke to my friend before I got to Veneti. Turn around and go back. Of course the phone. No one saw anything. iPhone 5, they just didn’t leave it. Grief mainly about the files and contacts I had inside but aren't you bored? I'm leaving for Pelion with my friends and without a phone! Who knew what was coming my way...
Returning on Monday , my friend tells me that someone called her who found my phone on the street! My joy is as great as you can imagine and even greater mainly for the contacts and files as I told you but of course for the device. He gives me the guy's phone number and I don't waste a moment! I call the guy and he tells me a little strange things. That he didn't find it but a lady who has kyphosis and walks hunched over due to illness found it and that I am a plumber and I went to her house because she is my client and I told her that it would be good to take the number she called last and give it back. She told him that she couldn't do it because she is a little deaf and in the end he was "forced" to do it... The story started to stink because the guy insisted that we meet as soon as possible so I imagined that he would want his share. Of course, in my joy, I didn't even think about how he opened the phone and found my contacts or anything related. I go to the meeting that same night, he gives me my device back and doesn't ask for anything in return! Not even a coffee for his trouble.
I happily open my phone and miraculously everything is in place! Straight to the neighborhood OPAP to play Joker, betting on my lucky day!
At some point I receive my credit card statement and see the most incredible charges and of course the card is OVERCHARGED! I immediately call my bank to ask for an explanation and they inform me that if I haven't made the charges then someone else has made them with my own details, my own codes, my own paypal and of course my own approval. So I rack my brain to figure out what the hell has happened and then it comes to me… In my daze I call the guy who "found" my iPhone at the house of the lady who suffers from kyphosis and of course it is turned off. So I go to a friend who knows five things more about mobile phones and computers and tell him my story. After laughing in my face at my irrelevance, he tells me that I shouldn't even turn on the mobile phone unless a specialist checks it first and advises me to cancel all the accounts I had saved. From email to paypal and credit cards. We also discovered that the phone he had called me from was stolen after calling the telecommunications provider that the number belonged to! For those who didn't understand, the "savior" who supposedly found my cell phone installed software that records everything and through a tunnel defined by the gentleman who installed it, sends all of my communications and everything I have on my phone, wherever he wants.
My dear, I wish I had had you first, says the wise people, and I wish I had.
Until now, I was not a reader of Secnews because I simply wasn't interested in the subject, but I just became one."
