Why don’t people use “Threema”. They can provide lifetime secure communication with a one-time payment. Also, you don’t need a phone number. If your phone number is captured, it will not be a problem because Threema provides communication with personal codes, not phone numbers.

Why don’t people send “SD cards” with their video on it?
I guess for the same reason.

Isn’t that what we’ve already been using gpg for?

Using what?

No. This is how you avoid the problem.
“Lemme call you back in 5 because <some excuse>”
If you’d lend them money you’ll have their contact info. Go get a different phone and call them.

You’re not wrong but it’s going to take a long time for “that relative that is calling could be someone else” to be something that people actually think about. Simple to execute your solution but 99% of the people out there won’t even consider the possibility.
“HI we are chased bank and we sent you 40k please give us the codes to Amazon gift cards to pay it back” still works on the elderly. This trick is going to wreak havok among old people.
