Securing Your Account After an Incident

If your VoIP account has been compromised or you suspect toll fraud, act immediately to limit damage and secure your account.

Immediate Steps

1. Contact PC Madness VoIP support immediately — we can suspend outbound calling on your account within minutes.
2. Change your VoIPCloud portal password immediately.
3. Change all SIP trunk and extension passwords in the portal.
4. Enable a $0 daily spend limit to stop all charges.

Identifying the Breach

Review your CDR (Call Detail Records) for large volumes of short calls to international numbers, particularly high-cost destinations (Pacific Islands, West Africa, Caribbean). These are hallmarks of International Revenue Share Fraud (IRSF).

Preventing Re-entry

Block international calling entirely unless required. Use strong, unique passwords for all SIP extensions (16+ characters). Do not expose your PBX admin interface to the internet without a VPN. Enable 2FA on your VoIPCloud portal account.
