Yeah, but how often have you been called in the U.S., heard someone sobbing on the other end, then told by someone else that they have your family member and that they will hurt them if you don&#x27;t send them money immediately? (99% of the time they have nobody and it is a phishing call, but with this information then suddenly it becomes an easier to convince people, among other things). I have answered that call. My mom has answered that call (and contacted me over another phone to make sure it was indeed a scam).<p>My point is that what works on the U.S. and what is considered sensitive information in the U.S. might not match what is sensitive in other societies. My mailing address and phone number are relatively public while in the U.S., but back in Mexico I would never do it that way.
