Google mistakenly started handing out a reporter's cellphone number to people searching for Facebook tech support

[Jorpho]

we get hundreds of scammy Facebook support phone number submissions to our suggest-a-link form, and most of them seem to originate in India and to be meticulously, repeatedly hand-typed (based on our anti-fraud metrics that have totally, utterly failed to reduce the unstoppable flood of these submissions – we also get floods of “Microsoft tech support” and “Amazon tech support” etc scam submissions).

Wait, what? That thing’s actually monitored? I thought it was some nonfunctional relic of a bygone age.
