Recently my USA web hosting partner falls in social engineering scam, in which hacker call them by support chat who claims that he is me! He lies on support agent & give him some confusing info that was me, Unfortunately employee grant him to my main account !!!
I battle the situation & requested lock down the entire account until case resolved & at the end I gained my access & beat the hacker.
In this case: I'm the loser because many of things like account suspended for a long period until case resolved and sensitive information my be leaked to hacker.
I'm cyber security expert, I'm advanced in OWASP, I know almost of hacking techniques to protecting my company & my clients. But Social Engineering hack was new for me!
I learn my self about it in depth, So it is very dangerous like other IT hacking techniques .
You can start from here then dive if you concerned.
