Good afternoon, Flyover readers,

We all ignore unknown numbers, but the rise in scam calls isn’t random, and the story behind it is more unsettling than most people realize. Today’s partner message from Incogni takes a closer look at how your data ends up in the hands of scammers, and what you can do to protect yourself before the next call comes in.

Unknown number calling? It’s not random…

The BBC caught scam call center workers on hidden cameras as they laughed at the people they were tricking.

One worker bragged about making $250k from victims. The disturbing truth?

Scammers don’t pick phone numbers at random. They buy your data from brokers.

Once your data is out there, it’s not just calls. It’s phishing, impersonation, and identity theft.

That’s why we recommend Incogni: They delete your info from the web, monitor and follow up automatically, and continue to erase data as new risks appear.
