Are you looking for information on (401) 373-0098? It is number that is used for Vishing and Social Engineering. The caller will contact the IT Department and pretend to be an employee wanting to reset their password for their work email so that they can access it while traveling. What is especially dangerous about this is the fact that the caller from this number had access to the Social Security details for the employee (possibly from a data leak in the news) but since the company is small, the IT Department agent knew each employee personally and that the caller’s voice did not match. In the future, this may become be harder since AI can be used to mimic a person.
