Targeting a CM.com customer account is attractive to scammers for two reasons: they can send messages for free and they can hide their identity. If the account used is compromised, the fraudulent messages come from you.
In addition to phishing, smishing, and vishing, scammers may also attempt to exploit the account to initiate voice calls to premium rate numbers, for which the dominican republic telegram number database CM.com account holder will then be charged.
Of course, there are things that can and should be done to prevent criminals from cracking your account credentials or stealing your API token. We list them below.
Make sure that two-factor authentication (2FA) is enabled on your CM.com account. This feature significantly reduces the likelihood of unauthorized access compared to an account protected only by a username and password. Instructions are available on our customer service page.
Create a strong password or even a passphrase using a combination of words, numbers, symbols, and uppercase and lowercase letters. Avoid using personal information or words that can be found in the dictionary.
Never share the token online or with someone who does not need it. The token must remain protected on your servers; under no circumstances should it be shown to end users of the website, not even in encrypted form. The token must not be included in the source code of the website or mobile application.
