Sweden: SOS Alarm warns of fake death-notice SMS phishing scam

SOS Alarm, Sweden's emergency services operator, warns of fraudulent SMS messages falsely claiming relatives have died, including personal data like names and personal identification numbers. This is a social-engineering phishing campaign targeting Swedish citizens, exploiting emotional distress to extract sensitive information. The scope and delivery method remain unclear, but the inclusion of personal identifiers suggests data may have been sourced from breaches or public records.
