Experts are warning of a rise in 'smishing' scams, which involve sending fraudulent messages to steal personal information. Android has protections in place to combat these scams, but vigilance is necessary. Reports indicate an increase in phishing attempts through email, with advice to delete and block suspicious messages. Authorities emphasize the importance of verifying the authenticity of emails, phone calls, and texts to avoid falling victim to scams. The post office has also been mentioned as a potential source of these scams.
