For the first time ever, I received what I'd consider a scam video call. It was on Google MEET from someone by the name of [email protected].
I just was wondering if this is a new development in the cell phone world.
I'd also ask how to handle such an issue. I did report abuse, and added "extra encryption" whatever that is, but had no other options on Meet, such as block number or report spam.
As you can surmise, I don't know this person, it just came out of the blue, on a Saturday yet.
 
No, but I’m getting fake subscription messages in Google Calendar.

Yes, I have, but a few years ago. IIRC I covered the camera to see what happened and they did as well. It was a foreign number.

Wouldn't be surprised if this could be an attempt to screenshot your face and clone your voice.
 
I’m doing cybersecurity training for work and got the name of another type of SCAM I’m getting. It’s called TOAD Phishing/Callback phishing.
