Mark shares the wild true story of getting SIM swapped in the middle of the Arizona desert, spending 90 sleepless nights afraid to use Wi-Fi, and then channeling that trauma into building America's most secure mobile service. You'll learn exactly how hackers steal your phone number in as little as 2–3 minutes without touching your device, why the biggest carriers are incentivized NOT to fix this, and how Efani's 11-layer protection system, $5M Lloyd's of London insurance, and dual eSIM setup gives entrepreneurs, executives, and crypto holders military-grade mobile security for $99/month. If you have money, a reputation, or a business worth protecting — your phone number is the master key to your entire digital life.
