      When I make a call on my apple phone, I can hear an echo of my voice and it seems like a third party may be on the line or recording the call. My bank recently told me the FBI had investigated a fraud scam at my branch where a member’s call was recorded and then her voice recording was used to try to transfer funds. On one occasion I heard a man on the line (a third party) make a comment on my conversation). Another family members also has this same echo on their phone. My blue tooth is turned off so I don’t this is the cause. I would like to know how to make my phone and bank information secure.

      Hi Cathy,

      That’s crazy! Usually an echo is on the other person’s phone who you are talking to.

      Just for safety, I would back up my phone and do a factory reset. You could also request a new SIM card from your carrier, in case they duplicated your card and then have access to your phone.

      And follow all the other rules, don’t use public wi-fi without a VPN, too.
