He they call, ask you to press 1 if you are vaccinated and, in the end, they hack your telephone. We have already said a few times that it is not necessary to do much for a rumor that has already been disproved returns to circulation. In the case of today's story, all that was needed was the deletion of three digits. That's right, three. According to a message circulating on the internet, criminals are using the telephone number 95004-1117 to carry out a scam. They would be calling, asking people to press the 1 button if they have been vaccinated and, In the end, they would hack phones throughout Brazil. Read the message that is going around: > ## Check out the denial on video: > > ## _Unfortunately, a new scam: Just now, my friend received a call from 95004-1117 asking him to press 1 if he had gotten vaccinated. There he pressed 1. Immediately the phone was locked and your phone was hacked. Therefore, be careful when receiving similar calls. Put this in your chat group._ ## Phones are being hacked by a call from 95004-1117 that talks about vaccine? It didn't take long for the message to spread like wildfire, especially on WhatsApp. But what not everyone is aware of is that the message is just a version changed from another rumor that we have already denied on Boatos.org. > ## Ancelmo Gois wrote a text criticizing Eduardo Paes? We check A few days ago, we talked about an identical message that pointed to the phone 912250041117 as being one of the bandits. The only difference from the other story to Today's was the deletion of the digits “122” so that the phone would have “cell phone guy from Brazil”. Remember what we said about the subject: _At first, the message made us very suspicious. She has characteristics of online rumors such as being vague, alarmist (to the extreme, in fact), with Portuguese errors, without citing any reliable source and with “that” sharing request._ _In addition, rumors about alleged “hacker” scams are common on the internet (perhaps because there are, in fact, many real scams online). We have already denied For example, the “video that hacks cell phone” or “WhatsApp Gold and viruses” rumor Gambarelli.”_ _In addition to these factors, another “detail” caught our attention. The number displayed in the message (912250041117) has no less than 12 digits. The telephones in Brazil have a maximum of 11 digits (nine of cell phone numbers plus two from DDD). The number would only have 12 digits if it had a “zero” in front of it. (which is not the case). With this, the thesis that it was an “imported fake” got stronger._ _From then on, all it took was a search to get to the truth. Everything happened in India. There is, in fact, a government service that aims to seek feedback on regarding vaccination (knowing how many people have been vaccinated in certain regions). The number is 1921. From there, the message appeared that pointed to that person number and such fraud press “1”._ _When the story spread, the government of India reinforced that the number cited was not the vaccine research officer. The publication (very poorly done, by the way) gave room for people to think that not only was the number wrong but also the “press 1” scam was real._ _There is just one detail: there is no way to “perform a scam” like this just with the person on the “other side” pressing 1. The proof of this is that police authorities of regions of the country had to deny that the “press 1” scam was real._ _So, let's recap. 1) The number mentioned has nothing to do with Brazil. AND from India (that alone would qualify the alert as a rumor). 2) Despite the number is possibly (according to the government of India) being used in scams (such as the WhatsApp verification message), there is no way to have your phone hacked just by pressing a key._ In short: the story that indicates that the number 95004-1117 is being used by criminals who want to go around hacking phones is false. It is about a new version of the same rumor that has already been denied here with a number very similar. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
