Mobile Number Security Audit
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
Recently I discovered that both calls and messages were being made in my name without my knowledge. Since I have posted my mobile number publicly in a few places, I need a clear, expert-level explanation of how someone copied or spoofed it and, more importantly, what I must do right now to stop it from happening again.
I’m looking for a concise security assessment that covers the most likely attack vectors (e.g., SIM cloning, caller-ID spoofing, VoIP gateway misuse) and pinpoints which of those match my situation. From there, I want a step-by-step mitigation plan that I can act on immediately—everything from carrier requests and device checks to any recommended apps, two-factor tools or network settings that harden my line against future abuse.
When we’re done I should fully understand:
• Exactly how my number was leveraged for unauthorized calls and texts
• Practical, easy-to-follow actions I can take today
• Ongoing monitoring tactics that alert me the moment suspicious activity resurfaces
Please keep the guidance straightforward, avoiding unnecessary jargon, and make sure every recommendation is realistic for an end user with no enterprise budget or specialized hardware.
