Reverse a Confirmed SIM Swap and Lock Accounts

    Race the attacker to each account that uses your number.

    What to do

      • Call the carrier from another phone, prove identity and reverse the swap
      • Lock the carrier account with a port-out PIN immediately
      • Reset email, then bank, then crypto, then social — in that order
      • Freeze cards and dispute every unauthorised transaction with the bank
      • If crypto wallets were on the same device, move remaining funds to a new wallet on a clean device
