I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's already well known in the cybercrime world, and companies are already taking measures against it. For most people, the risk-to-reward ratio isn't worth it, especially since law enforcement regularly makes arrests.

You swap the phone number to your own SIM card from someone with a crypto wallet. Once the number is swapped, you can perform a password reset and get access to the account and the funds.

Yeah, I noticed crypto in general is easier to steal. Carding is harder, you get 10 checks in a row, 3DSecure, etc.
