Just one phone call . . .

It seems as though, in these days of high tech security and the elite hackers that try to foil it, a simple phone call is sufficient to cause disruption and financial loss.

Airports, train stations, commercial/industrial hubs, shopping centers, bus stations, hospitals . . even motorway bridges . . an endless list of 'terrorist' targets where a simple phone call really can't be ignored.

Re: Just one phone call . . .

Ah, ok, now it makes more sense.

Does it actually say they were phone calls, I have read them all.

Nah, I think email was mentioned in one report I read, but phone, email, note through the letterbox, they all carry the same threat . . . and need to be investigated and/or acted upon
