Expertenmeinung
Stellen Sie sich vor, ein Anruf aus den USA erscheint auf Ihrem Display und ein roboterhafte Stimme liest Ihnen sofort einen Verifizierungscode für Ihr Google‑Konto vor. Solche Anrufe werden häufig als Teil von Phishing‑Versuchen eingesetzt, um Zugriff auf Ihre Konten zu erlangen. Antworten Sie nicht, geben Sie keine persönlichen Daten preis und prüfen Sie den Code nur über die offizielle Google‑App oder die Webseite. Aktivieren Sie nach Möglichkeit die Zwei‑Faktor‑Authentifizierung und nutzen Sie Authenticator‑Apps statt SMS‑ oder Telefon‑Codes. Blockieren Sie die Nummer im Telefonbuch und melden Sie den Vorfall Ihrem Mobilfunkanbieter. Bleiben Sie wachsam, wenn Ihnen unverlangt ein Code zugespielt wird.
