Text Message Scam

Date December 7, 2009

I just received a text message from 270-495-0189, saying “customer issue, visa service frozen, please call 270 495 0189.”

Do not text them or call them back! This is  a scam. Think about it, does your Visa Credit Card Carrier have your cell phone number? Are you signed up to get text alerts? If you answered no, don’t call. 

Please let everyone you can know about this. They will ask you for your credit card number, and probably your social security number. This is a complete phishing scam.
