Recently received a text, went to best buy, who said this is a known scam. I would like Verizon to shut this down.

Best Buy's real web site says to forward the e-mails and texts to abuse@bestbuy.com

Got the same claim, too. And I think it's scam.

I got the text from this number a little bit ago. Go to http://iwinbestbuy.com/?18 and enter code to claim $1000 gift card now. Thought it was a little odd because they last time I was in best buy was a year ago and only bought CDs...
