Google security alert tells user their phone number was scraped
Original: # Google security alert. I just had notification on my burner phone (used for purchases etc) that Google had scraped my
A Google security notification informed a user that their phone number, listed on a secondary 'burner' device used for purchases, had been scraped by Google. The user reacted angrily, calling phone numbers private data, and said they had deleted the number from their Google account in response to the alert.
Why now: People are discussing growing concern over Google scraping and holding personal contact data without clear consent.
