Victim Location 34996
Type of a scam Phishing
phishing for all my contacts.
as soon as I clicked on the URL in the text message from my brother, and entered Marco pollo video/talk app, all my email addresses and picture of friends were populated already.( without permission). I was suppose to click on all my friends to invite them to this talk Video
text messaging APP
I presume then the App sends personal invites to my contacts , and make it seems like a personal message was sent from me asking them to download this URL with just a Tap so I can video chat with them!!!!!!
Surprise, ! to me because my Brother was not there for a video call !!!! Scam!!! Why would I need something like this when We have facebook avalible for talk and Video if we so desire.
