The Commsrisk Show: SMS Pumping Fraud
Elon Musk lifted the lid on the soaring scale of artificial SMS generation when he complained that bots were costing Twitter $60mn each year by pumping bogus two-factor authentication messages in the direction of crooked telcos. This then became a global story for information security professionals (and a lot of opinionated amateurs) when Twitter switched off the use of SMS for two-factor authentication of unpaid accounts. How serious is artificial SMS generation, does it spell the end for A2P SMS as a service, or are there other ways to prevent SMS pumping? These are the questions that are fielded by Tim Biddle, who is Sinch’s Director of Operator Relations for the UK and Ireland.
Topical news items are also be debated by the show’s three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.
