Google explains how stingrays, SMS blasters, and smishing attacks are common in the real world.
Stingrays are devices that simulate legitimate cell towers that are being used in your area.
They knock down the connection from 5 G / LTE to an older standard known as 2G.
Once your device is connected to this 2 G network, messages will be sent your way in order to try and get you to reveal details about yourself or critical information about the accounts you're associated with.
