Unauthorised calls made from my account

Hi guys,
Today I noticed that I have less credit than I should so I checked by call history and found that there are several unauthorized calls to China made from March 08 2012 to March 11 2012. And I also noticed that a contact has been added to the contact list.
I have two different and anti-virus programs and proteced by firewall software in my computer. It is scanned daily for any security issues.
Could you please investigate how this contact has been added to the list and who made those calls? I took a screenshot, removed the contact and changed the password.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Shane

  • Calls made on my account to Pakistan and UAE from ...

    Calls made on my account to Pakistan and UAE from my USA account. I was charged for these many calls made on Oct 18. Was my system hacked? What should I do now.

  • Weird calls made from cell phone?

    Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.
    Today, I went online to pay my bill (due April 14th) and noticed an international long distance charge for $69.65 on one of the lines on my account.
    I did some digging and pulled up the bill with the charge on it, along with all the phone calls made from each phone on my account. On this particular line, there are some VERY weird phone calls. On 2/26/11, the are numerous calls that start at 1:05 am and continue - there is a different phone call made almost every minute. It also happens on 3/11/11 in the evening, 3/12 in the early morning, 3/12 in the evening, and one call made on 3/13 at noon. Here is what it looks like (deleted my location for privacy):

    It's just really freaking me out. This is MY phone BTW, and I haven't made ANY of these calls. I've called several of the toll-free ones, and they all come up as party/chat lines. I've never used a chat line in my life, I'm not big on talking on the phone - I'm a texter, not a talker. Not to mention the fact that when these calls were made I was either asleep or sitting next to my spouse. I'm she would have noticed if I were chatting on a party line!
    I called VZW and spoke with customer service. She basically told me that it was IMPOSSIBLE for there to be an error on their side. So I called tech support. He told me that he didn't know what was going on and told me to contact Fraud - their computers/system was down so he couldn't help a whole lot. So I'm going to call Fraud in a little while to see if they can help.
    The phone has never been missing or stolen. It's a Samsung Intensity II, so it's pretty low tech. I don't know what to do, we can't really afford to pay the $69.65 and obviously these calls have been happening for awhile - I'm afraid it's going to happen again. This phone has issues too - it constantly gets on to the mobile web and randomly opens things like the calculator.
    What should I do if Verizon can't help me?

    Thanks for the reply!
    I've called and spoke to a rep in the "Account Investigations". The woman told me that it's impossible for it to be a cloning issue - the reason she gave is that when a phone is cloned, the theif will run up your bill completely and call multiple different coutries. She said that it's still POSSIBLE to clone, even with the ESN numbers not the sim cards, but that it's rare and she claimed that because I only received a charge for $69.65 and only 80 minutes were used up total, that this isn't a cloning or fraud issue. She also said that the calls were valid because they were all made from my home area and incoming calls were received later that day. She also called the Canada number for me and it was a party/chat line as well.
    Okay, whatever. I asked her if there was ANY way these calls could have been made without my knowledge - someone hacking in to the phone, the phone making calls on it's own...anything. She shot me down and said that she couldn't explain them - her only explaination was that someone in my home area had possesstion of the phone at this time and made the phone calls.She said it was impossible for there to be an error on Verizon's part. I told her that I gave my old phone to a friend of mine (who is single and LOVES to call party lines) and asked her if somehow the calls made on my old phone could be accidentally charged on my bill - she said definitely not. She advised me to use the parental control tools on the VZW website to prevent these calls from occuring again - which will cost me $5 more per month. I am probably going to do the parental controls thing - but I still just want to know what's going on. I'm not trying to get out of paying my bill, I just don't think I should pay for something I didn't DO. And the fraud rep didn't seem too interested in investigating further - she hung up on me, even. I have been a loyal customer since 2007 - always paid my bill on time, never made any complaints unless it was something I couldn't deal with myself...and now when I need them to help me out and just investigate a little further, they're not interested. I used to love VZW, but now I don't know.
    What should I do? Just keep calling until someone helps me?
    It seems possible that my old phone is getting confused with my new phone - when my wife's parents got divorced, her father shut off her mom's and sister's lines - not permanently, just temporarily through his account on VZW's site (you know, where you can disconnect the phone if it gets stolen or lost). When she tried to reactivate the phone on a different account, VZW cs reps told her than she couldn't because the phone was still "owned" by the account holder - the father. Now, the contract hasn't been renewed and the phones have both been permanently disconnected because the father chose to not renew the contracts and disconnected the numbers. When we tried to activate the phones, CS reps still claimed that the phones were "owned" by the father and wouldn't let us activate them.
    Sorry for being long winded, I just want some help.

  • Secure AJAX calls made from a JSR 168 portlet

    I am investigating methods to secure AJAX calls made from a JSR 168 portlet to a servlet using the Direct Web Remoting framework (DWR) and Weblogic Portal. The portlet can have more than one instance and different entitlements depending on the desktop it is available from. The Portal has several desktops and does not require the user to authenticate for some of the desktops.
    So far the only method I have come up with is to pass a token from the portlet to the servlet which indicates the entitlements the user should have to access the documents from the portlet and check in the servlet if the User has the appropriate global roles to access the documents.

    no , that doesn't work, the token passed can be modified by a malicious user (unless the token is random or signed)
    You need to store the desktop(s) the user is on in probably the HttpSession and read that from the servlet and make the decisions accordingly.

  • Is there any way to salvage contact info, media and call logs from an account that is currently suspended

    Is there any way to salvage contact info, media and call logs from an account that is currently suspended

        Hello screamer666.
    I definitely understand wanting to maintain your information. If you have suspended your account, you are still able to access your My Verizon online account to review contacts saved with Backup Assistant or media and call logs saved with Verizon Cloud. Are you having trouble accessing your account?

  • Recording calls made from/to a BlackBerry by hardware means

    This thread is intended to talk about legally* circumventing the software block made on purpose by RIM because of the Canadian privacy laws. I'm assuming whoever reads this thread is allowed to do this.
    *Legally in Italy, where I live. Here the knowledge of both parties is unnecessary to record a call; only the (silent) consent of one of them is required.
    The 9900 can record a call via the Call Recorder app by Ajani InfoTech; however, this doesn't work on my 9790 and contacting the developer has proven to be a failure.
    So, I've come up with a hardware solution that needs to be improved. It does have flaws, and with this post I'm asking you to help me in fixing them.
    *** REQUIREMENTS ***
    A digital recorder
    A headset (headphone + microphone) with the mic and phones outs splitted (two outs)
    A 3-way splitter
    A 1/8'' TRS-to-TRS cable
    *** THE TECHNIQUE ***
    The BB has only one output, hence the need for the 3-way splitter. So the first step is to connect the 3-way splitter to the earphone plug of the BB.
    The first input of the splitter is for the 1/8'' TRS cable that will go directly to the microphone input of the digital recorder.
    The second and third input of the splitter are for the mic and phones of the headset.
    When making a call you have to select "Earphone" (and not "Device") because the BB won't recognize the splitter; press "Record" on the digital recorder and it will all begin.
    *** THE FLAWS ***
    This technique works, and I've tested it multiple times. However, the volume of the conversation is extremely low.
    If I remove the headset, and use for instance an earset (TRRS jack with both mic and earphones in 1 plug), I can hear the other party's conversation very well (good volume) but not my voice.
    My question: the headset I've used is very cheap & low-quality.
    Would a better headset solve this issue?
    Thank you for your support and remember, this is NOT intended to break the law!

  • Someone is calling 071417985311 from my account? R...

    For the last day or 2 someone has been using my account to call a mobile phone in the UK (I live in Canada)
    They also set up auto recharge so my account has been adding $20 each time they use all the credit. Now this is defo not me and I have since changed my password and disabled auto recharge (Didnt even know this was a feature until today)
    Who do I contact to try and get a refund for this because I am now around $60 down and my history log can be looked at too see what the hell is going on. There is a list of calls on the log dating from yesterday all lasting within 40 - 60 mins all to this number. I gave the number a call myself to see who they were calling and it got through to UK conferencing or something like that.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi, Princescyther, and welcome to the Community,
    In addition to changing your Skype account password, also change your payment method account as well as your e-mail account password - if any account was compromised, the thief may have accessed the rest of the account contact details on file.
    Do report the unauthorized payments to the issuer of your payment method.  Most credit card companies will not hold their customers liable for fraudulent charges if reported quickly. 
    To report this incident to Skype, Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Timeout a method call made from an EJB

    Hi,
    Is there a way to implement a timeout in a SOAP method call which I'm invoking from an EJB. I'm trying to use a web service RPC method in my client and I need to know if there is some way by which I can timeout the method invocation.
    For eg, what happens if the web service is down? I want to be able to tell the user that the call did not go through because the web service was down. I'm assuming that I'll have to specify some sort of a timeout period for which the call will wait for a response. If no response is received during this time, I want to say that a timeout occured.
    So, if I do something like
    webServiceA.invokeSoapMethod(parmaeters);
    from an EJB I want that this method should wait for, say 10 seconds, for a response and then say that the call timed out. Is there any way to do such a thing?
    Alternatively, if somebody can give me some pointers to whether SOAP or RPC (or some other component!) specify some way to timeout the RPC call, I'll appreciate that too..:-).
    Thanks in advance..:-)

  • Phone calls made from phone but NOT from me

    Today apparently one of my friends (he was sober) texted me, as well as a couple other friends since he asked them if I was ok, that I had called him, apologized for things, and then hung up. At the time, I was in the restroom, absolutely nowhere near my phone I promise you that. He swears it was my voice and my number since his phone is locked to people not in his contact list. My phone is not connected to Wifi or anything like that. I also have not left my phone somewhere out of my sight, and there isn't any new apps that i did not put on my phone. What could have happened and should i be worried? My phone also doesn't show that I called him. Any help would be great thank you! Feeling so paranoid right now!

  • Unauthorized calls to friends from my account

    At least one of my friends has been contacted by someone appearing to be calling from my skype account. However, there is no record of these calls made from my skype account. I subsequently changed my skype password, yet my friend is still receiving said calls. Any ideas how this is happening?

    You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • List of calls made?

    How do i review a list of calls made from my phone to retrieve a phone number that was not saved but it is now vital i find the number.

    The simplest way is to hit the Send button (green phone icon) on your keypad - it will bring up a list of recent calls to and from your phone.
    If it was further back than that list goes, you can log on to your account online (if you are the account owner) and view your bill details for the past year for calls, 3 months for texts.

  • ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple

    ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple in the past asking letting me know a purchase had been made and asking if I had made the purchase, but the item listed has alway been a purchase that I had made. Since I had received similar emails in the past, I didn't think anything of it. Because I had not purchased the item listed, I immediately clicked on the link in order to change my password, which has been suggested in authentic emails i had received from Apple in the past. The site I was redirected to was exactly the same as the Apple site where you go to change your password. I entered my userID and password and it stated a verification email would be sent, if it was not sent click "resend email." When I did not receive an email, after about 10 seconds I went to the Apple site and followed the SAME EXACT step on pages that were IDENTICAL to the FRAUDULENT website I apparently had just been at. When I clicked "Send verification email," I DID receive an email within seconds, which had a special link that brought me to a page where I could change my password, which I did. I later compared a legitimate email to the FRAUDULENT email and I DID FIND A DIFFERENCE, BUT IT WAS ALMOST UNNOTICEABLE unless you were really, really looking.  I doubt it would be noticed by anyone if not comparing it closely to a real email. THE DIFFERENCE WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE AUTHENTIC EMAIL, THERE WERE THREE LINKS THAT COULD BE SELECTED - My Apple ID/Support/Privacy Policy. ON THE FRAUDULENT EMAIL THESE LINKS WERE NOT PRESENT!!! Just today I received an email from Apple stating my password had been changed today. I did not change my password today. When I changed after getting the fake email, I did not think about my SECURITY QUESTIONS!!! If you forget your Apple password, you are able to answer the security questions in place of your ID and you get a confirmation email. Even though I changed my password within a one minute when I did not get a confirmation email with a link to change my password right away and I went dierctly to Apple's site, apparently it was enough time to take all the information on my account - INCLUDING MY DEBIT CARD NUMBER, WHICH HAD BEEN REQUIRED WHEN I INITIALLY SET UP THE ACCOUNT!!! Today I received a call from VISA FRAUD PROTECTION asking about strange activity on my account and stating they were concerned and wanted to ensure I had used the account. I HAD NOT, AND ALL THE MONEY IN MY BANK ACCOUNT HAD BEEN STOLEN!!!!! I am writing this in hopes that many people will see it and NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM. Please pay close attention to any emails you supposedly receive from Apple - If the links "MY APPLE ID/SUPPORT/PRIVACY POLICY," PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME IT IS AN AUTHENTIC EMAIL FROM APPLE. I suggest you immediately forward the email to apple, which I didn't do because this happened days ago. Nothing was taken from my money that was already on the Apple account, and nothing had been taken from my checking account. I guess I assumed there had been something wrong with the link in the email directing me to where I could change my password, plus I had gone to the valid Apple website and changed my password for real, and I guess I was thinking that changing my password would prevent someone from being able to acces my account info. PLEASE DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM AS I DID!!!!

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.
