Stolen

True story: This lady has changed her habit after her handbag was
stolen. Her handbag which contained her mobile, credit card, purse..,
etc. was stolen. Twenty minutes later when she called her hubby,
telling him what had happened, hubby says "I've just received your
SMS asking about our PIN and I've replied a little while ago." When
they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money
was already withdrawn. The pickpocket had actually used the
stolen mobile phone to SMS "hubby" in the contact list and got hold
of the PIN. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from
the bank account.

Moral of the lesson:

Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your
contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, sweetheart,
Dad, Mum etc...... and very importantly, when sensitive info is being
asked thru SMS, CONFIRM by calling back.
