Raising Fraud Awareness: Wangiri 2.0 Threat Explained in Interview with Black Swan Telecom Journal

If we spot suspicious activity while monitoring traffic, we always alert our partners about a potential threat. This is our philosophy. And today, these efforts have paid off in several ways.

Interview With Black Swan Telecom Journal

Recently, our work helped us discover a new type of fraud – we called it Wangiri 2.0 (You can learn more about this threat as well as general wangiri fraud detection here.)
