My husband, 42, passed away unexpectedly a month ago. Recently, his phone received a notification for a hotel room charge made just minutes earlier. Worried, you rushed to the hotel, and while driving, a text appeared on his phone saying, “I’m already at the hotel, waiting for you.” Then the phone rang, and a woman’s voice asked, “Where are you, love? I’ve been waiting for you for an hour!”
Confused and scared, you asked who she was. She was confused too and said, “Isn’t this Jake’s phone?” You realized someone named Jake had hacked into your late husband’s phone and stolen his personal information, including his credit card. You contacted the authorities, who helped fix the situation.
For a brief moment, you let yourself believe your husband might still be alive.
