سائبر اور فون کال فراڈ؛ محتاط رہیے
پاکستان میں جہاں لوگ ڈکیتی کی وارداتوں سے پریشان ہیں، وہیں سائبر کرائمز میں بھی بہت تیزی سے اضافہ ہو رہا ہے۔ ان دنوں ایک نئے قسم کے فراڈ سے لٹیروں نے کئی لوگوں کو اپنی رقم سے محروم کر دیا۔ اس نئی طرز کے فراڈ میں ملوث افراد واردات کے لیے عام شہریوں کو کال کرتے ہیں۔ انتہائی تشویشناک بات یہ ہے کہ ان لوگوں کے پاس عوام کا ڈیٹا بھی موجود ہوتا ہے جس سے یہ بات ظاہر ہوتی ہے کہ ان کا ریکی کا نظام بہت منظم ہے یا پھر ان افراد کی موبائل ریکارڈز تک رسائی ہے۔ ٹیلی فونک فراڈ میں ملوث نوسرباز اکثر اپنے آپ کو پولیس افسر ظاہر کرتے ہیں۔ یہ کسی بھی شخص کو کال ملا کر اسے اس کے نام سے پکارتے ہیں اور بعد ازاں اسے یہ بتاتے ہیں کہ ’’آپ کے خاندان کا کوئی فرد ہمارے قبضے میں ہے، ہم تھانے سے بات کررہے ہیں‘‘۔ یہ گروہ اس قدر پلاننگ سے کام کرتا ہے کہ جس شخص کے متعلق یہ بتارہے ہوتے ہیں یہ افراد کال پر اس کی آواز بھی سناتے ہیں، جس میں وہ رو رو کر خود کو بچانے کی درخواست کر رہا ہوتا ہے۔ ایسی صورتحال میں جسے کال کی جاتی ہے اس کے اعصاب پر ��کمل طور پر قابو پانے کے بعد اس سے پیسوں کو مطالبہ کیا جاتا ہے اور اسے یہ کہا جاتا ہے کہ اگر مقدمہ درج نہیں کرانا چاہتے تو پیسوں کا انتظام کرو ورنہ یا تو اسے مار دیا جائے گا یا اس کیس میں حوالات میں ڈال دیا جائے گا۔
اس فراڈ میں ملوث افراد شہریوں سے ان کی حیثیت کے مطابق لاکھوں روپے تک بٹورنے کی کوشش کرتے ہیں۔ کراچی جیسے بڑے شہر میں بھی کئی افراد اس فراڈ کا شکار ہو چکے ہیں۔ انجان کال کا یہ طریقہ واردات اس طرح سے ترتیب دیا گیا ہے کہ متاثرہ شخص کو سوچنے سمجھنے کا وقت ہی نہیں ملتا اور اس سے اچھی خاصی رقم بٹور لی جاتی ہے۔ بین الاقوامی ادارے کی تحقیق کے مطابق ایف آئی اے اہلکاروں کا کہنا ہے کہ اس نوعیت کے فراڈ میں ملوث اس گروہ میں سے اکثر افراد کا تعلق حافظ آباد، فیصل آباد، سرگودھا اور لاہور سے ہے۔ سرکاری ریکارڈ کے مطابق فون کالز سے کیے جانے فراڈ کے کیسوں کی تعداد اب ہزاروں میں پہنچ چکی ہے۔ واضح رہے کہ سائبر کرائم ونگ میں اب فائیننشل فراڈ کے کیسوں کی تعداد میں اضافہ ہو رہا ہے۔ ایسے کیس جعلی سم اور جعلی اکاؤنٹس کی وجہ سے بڑھ رہے ہیں، جن کی بدولت یہ گروہ شہریوں کا ریکارڈ باآسانی حاصل کر لیتے ہیں۔ سائبر کرائم نے ٹیلی کام کمپینوں کے عملے کے ایسے کئی افراد کو گرفتار بھی کیا ہے جو ڈیٹا فراہم کرنے میں ملوث ہیں۔
یہ فراڈیئے کال کرتے ہوئے وی پی این ایپلی کیشن سے اپنی کالر لوکیشن تبدیل کر لیتے ہیں جس کے باعث ان کے مقام کا معلوم کرنا کسی حد تک مشکل ہو جاتا ہے۔ ایسا بھی ہوتا ہے کہ یہ لوگ اسمارٹ فون کے بجائے سادہ فون کا استعمال کرتے ہیں اور واردات کے بعد اسے ضائع کر دیا جاتا ہے۔ یہ لوگ ایک ہی دن میں سیکڑوں نمبرز پر کال کرتے ہیں جبکہ ان کی کامیابی کی شرح 8 سے دس فیصد ہے۔ ٹیلی فون کال سے فراڈ کرنے والے کئی افراد جنھیں ایف آئی اے نے گرفتار بھی کیا اور انہیں سزائیں بھی ہوئی ہیں۔ صرف گزشتہ سال 500 سے زیادہ افراد کو گرفتار کیا گیا لیکن اس کے باوجود ان وارداتوں میں کمی نہیں آرہی۔ یقینی طور پر اس فراڈ میں ملوث افراد کا تعلق بھی آئی ٹی کے شعبوں سے ہو گا۔ ملک میں بے روزگاری کی وجہ سے جرائم کی شرح بڑھ رہی ہے۔ حکومتی سطح پر نوجوانوں کو تک��یکی تعلیم تو دی جارہی ہے لیکن ملازمت کے مواقعے موجود نہیں، جس کے نتائج اسی طرح نکلیں گے۔ جہاں حکومت اور ادارے ان افراد کو گرفتار کر کے کڑی سے کڑی سزا دیں، وہیں اس بات کی بھی کوشش کریں کہ آئی ٹی اور ہیکنگ کے ماہر نوجوانوں کو ملازمت کی فراہمی کو بھی یقینی بنایا جائے تاکہ وہ کسی منفی سرگرمی میں شامل نہ ہوں۔
یہاں یہ بات اہم ہے کہ عام شہری اس فراڈ سے کیسے بچیں؟ شہریوں کو اس طرح کے فراڈ سے بچنے کےلیے خود بھی محتاط رہنا ہو گا۔ شہریوں کو چاہیے کہ فون کال پر کسی بھی قسم کی ذاتی معلومات فراہم نہ کریں اور اگر کسی کے اغوا یا گرفتاری کے متعلق کوئی کال آئے تو سب سے پہلے اس شخص سے رابطہ کریں اور تصدیق کے بعد قانون نافذ کرنے والے اداروں سے رابطہ کریں۔ یہ افراد ایسے سافٹ ویئرز کا استعمال بھی کرتے ہیں جس سے نمبر بظاہر یو اے این لگتا ہے۔ اس حوالے سے بینک انتظامیہ کئی بار ہدایات جاری کر چکی ہیں کہ بینک کسی قسم کی ذاتی معلومات ٹیلی فون پر نہیں لیتا۔ شہریوں کو اس بات کو ذہن نشین کرنا ہو گا۔ آج کے اس جدید دور میں بھی معصوم لوگ ٹی وی چینلز کے گیم شو کے نام پر لٹ رہے ہیں، عوام کو اب احتیاط سے کام لینا ہو گا ورنہ مشکل حالات میں مزید پریشانی کا سامنا کرنا پڑسکتا ہے۔

I’m really frustrated my card got locked on Friday - I’ve been going through donating $5 to roughly 12-14 campaigns for weeks now but this week it gets flagged as potential fraud? Not only that the company is closed on the weekends so I have to wait until Monday to unlock my card (if I was still living alone and had to buy my own groceries/pay for gas I would be in trouble).
#ra speaks#personal#me: *living at home again* okay my cost of living has decreased by $50-$75 bucks a week let’s donate it all every week -#the credit card company who I’ve never once wronged: FUCK YOU STOP SPENDING YOUR OWN MONEY LIKE THAT ITS SCARING THE FRAUD SYSTEM#last time my card got locked (sending money to a group doing a bus ride to dc for Palestine protesting) I didn’t get a notification/case no#and I remember that being a problem so then this time I call and the 1800 person asks for my case no. and it’s like.#¯\ _(ツ)_/¯ fuck me I guess#I’ll ask abt it when I call the local office on monday cause like I think they could unlock my card if I had the damn case no.#but I’ve literally never been contacted. which is weird bc they 100% have my phone/email on file#like I get emails abt my loans through them and when I make a payment and shit. why not emails abt locked card? who knows

my controversial opinion is that the risk of discovery and consequences for a business that edits timesheet data should be greater than the consequences for the business for just admitting the scheduling error and paying the overtime that results.
#the employment regs that say employees who don’t get their meal break get overtime are there so we get a goddamn meal break#they are not a creative timesheet editing challenge#the administrative “burden” of “fixing the timesheet” is not the major concern here#your real human being employee spent 7+ hours continuously working or driving between work sites#anyway my first full day of work (zero notice sick cover) was enlightening#I managed to stay hydrated and wasn’t involved in or the cause of any fatigue related incidents so I’m taking it as a win#I should write down my notes from the post-shift phone call with the boss while I’m still freshly irritated though#love to be told after the fact that I didn’t have access to the info that the office holds that could have saved me getting lost en route#not that it would have made a difference to my meal break situation because I am certain that it was not factored in to my schedule to star#but I love to be gently scolded for not knowing things I couldn’t possibly know and “not taking my break” that couldn’t possibly be taken#due to the prioritisation of administrative fraud we will never discuss this again and learn absolutely nothing from it as an organisation#👍

every single time I start setting things up to travel to Japan I get flagged for credit card fraud and every single time I have to call them and tell them it’s not fraud and this year I had the extra pleasure of being Ms.’d the whole time--it’s Dr. to you and also how does this happen literally every single year, how have y’all not put a “this person goes to Japan in the summers” note on my account by now
#I'd appreciate it if people didn't reblog this; thanks#FINALLY got my JR pass. took me more than an hour and multiple phone calls. I hate it here#Queenie actually says something on this blog#the credit card fraud person was like 'are you being coerced into making this purchase' and I get why they asked#but like. no. I am not. I am trying to buy transportation for myself. please.

being a victim of theft is really opening my eyes to how many government services have broken phone trees
#some of them just straight up hang up on you#some of them for some ungodly reason the anti-fraud phone tree goes back and forth between two options#so if you press one at a certain point it'll put you through to an actual rep#but if you press one as a different point it'll send you a text message and hang up#and it just vacillates between these two branch options#and you can also hit 2 to get different options depending on when you press it#like#bro#just do 1 to 4 why are you making me cycle through two different 1 2 pairs#transunion actually my bad#the anti-fraud phone tree is worse because there's no hold it'll just hang up if no one is available and tell you to call back#and everyone knows how bad the govn't websites are don't even get me started#i have encountered multiple phone trees that don't register when you hit a number it'll just keep offering you the same number options#over and over#babe i hit 3 please take me to 3 i'm begging you i want 3 so bad

I also hate my mother. I haven’t decided if she’s a cunt or a moron. Bc how many times do I have to explain to her how she’s a horrible parent and mean as fuck for saying:
“I think you just like to be dramatic”
“it’s all in your head… what? I’m right. It IS all in your head!”
“god says FATHERS don’t provoke anger, not mothers”
“The whole world just revolves around you!”
“You don’t do your chores because you don’t care about them. Maybe if you spent less time caring about your phone-“
“You’re just so beautiful, why would you want ugly hair???”
“oh you think that’s bad? At least I’m not telling u u had shit for brains like my dad did!”
“You want to be a psychiatrist? You know you have to work with crazy people, right?”
“Well that just doesn’t fit my definition of disabled”
“Alright let’s see those ugly tattoos!”
“I just wish you had blue eyes. Maybe my next kid will have blue eyes.”
“Everybody’s volume needs to come down. Esp you. I could hear everything you were saying from the other room.”
“Do you hear yourself and the way you talk to your friends? You’re so mean to them. No one is going to want to be friends with you if you keep saying those things even if everyone else says them too.”
“Maybe no one wants to be your friend bc you’re moping around and sad all the time. No one wants to be friends with someone who’s sad and not fun.”
“Why! Why! Why! You ask too many questions. Just shut up and listen to me!!! Bc one day I’ll ask you to move out of the way and you’ll say why and it’ll be too late bc a car hit you dead. Okay? Now stop talking.”
“Oh my god!!!! Spit it out already!”
“Why are you asking me this if you don’t know what time it starts or who’s house or who’s going to be there? And is your room even clean? Don’t bother wasting MY TIME until you have all your ducks in a row first.”
“Do you know how bad that makes me look”
“Why do you waste your time on those pointless videos? Imagine how far you’d be right now if you spend that doing something for school or to make money”
“This is stupid why are you showing me this?”
“Of course I love you I tell all my friends at work how proud I am of you all the time!”
“How hard can it be to eat just chew and swallow. Why do you need to see a doctor about it?”
“If you ask for adhd treatment they’re going to think you’re drug seeking and then they’ll never let you go to medical school”
“Don’t touch me when I’m trying to sleep. Let’s just sleep back to back ok?”
“Why do I even pay for you to have a phone if you cannot reliably answer my calls or texts within five minutes? If this happens again I’m going to just shut it off.”
“I don’t even know what to do with you. I almost want to just send you to your dads.”
“You need to stop letting your sexual assault define you. You need to get over it and forgive.”
“Without god, all things would be permissible.”
“You are so ungrateful”
Ok. Have no daughter then. Bye bye !
#diary42069#mother wound#fuck my mom#lmao she still pays my phone bill even tho I’m 26#she’s blocked tho#I call it parental fraud loophole#(working title)

Getting Awakened By My Bank's Fraud Detection Department
File:Shopping online with bank card.jpg I was dreaming about something normal. Then I got awakened in real life by a phone call on my mobile phone. I saw that I had a text message from the fraud detection department of my bank. Now I know why my online order would not go through last night. It also did not work early this morning before I went to sleep. During that time, I was trying to buy…

The phone at work is going really well, so I'm sounding very cheerful despite the fact that it's late in the day.
It's actively creeping clients out.
#stories from work#phone calls#I'm cheerful#I'm helpful#I'm not berating people for stuff they can't help#I'm not arguing about stuff that makes no sense if you use your brain for two months#the pauses are long#two people have double checked if they picked the right phone number#I'm not lying to anyone about stuff that can't be done#just offering alternative solutions#no one wants me to stop but everyone is noticeably confused that it's happening#I'm just happy to get the easy Thursday clients tbh#no one has asked me to commit fraud or condone medical assault ALL DAY
