Most Apps are well regulated by the likes of Apple, but the scammers get you by sending you links for updates, here you end up entering passwords and allowing them into your world.

Our first question at Secure Data Recycling is – How do they know what Apps you are using?

Somehow the criminals have got hold of your data via an old phone, an old PC  or an old tablet.

You could well have sent your old Devices to Secure Data Recycling, but perhaps the one at your office or a friends house that you used slipped through the net.
