Expert Opinion

Ever wonder why a random Sydney number shows up in a Google Authenticator alert? It’s a classic phishing ploy that pretends to be a security notice to harvest your credentials. The messages you received mimic legitimate Google phrasing but redirect you to a foreign number, a tell‑tale sign of a social engineering attack. Hang up, never share codes, and verify any alerts directly in your Google account or official app. If you suspect compromise, change passwords and enable 2‑FA on a trusted device. Reporting the number to your carrier can also help curb future scams.
