@aroundthehills@mastodonapp.uk Good call. Sort of happened to me by reverse once. My mum did genuinely get a new phone but her message was not convincing. I gave her a test: name the 3 cities where her children went to university and name which family cat came in between [Cat A] and [Cat C].

@Simon_M That's a good plan. You can't necessarily reply on a voice call now, due to spoofing. I've heard of intended scam victims saying things like "Have you spoken to your brother about this?" when there isn't a brother.
