  If you notice unusual activity on your sim card, such as sudden loss of signal or inability to make calls, it could be a sign that your sim card has been hacked. This can put your cryptocurrency accounts at risk as hackers can intercept SMS verification codes and gain access to your accounts. It's important to contact your mobile service provider immediately to report the issue and take necessary steps to secure your sim card and cryptocurrency accounts.

  One common sign of a hacked sim card is receiving unexpected text messages or notifications from your mobile service provider, claiming that your sim card has been activated on a new device. If you haven't made any changes to your sim card or requested a new device, it's likely that someone else has gained unauthorized access to your sim card. In such cases, it's crucial to take immediate action to protect your cryptocurrency accounts by changing passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and contacting your mobile service provider for assistance.
