I received a text message on my phone yesterday from 1-(646) 512-3269 stating:
"Congratulations, your entry last month has made you a winner! Goto http://www.bestbuy.ca.wonacontest.com to claim your prize! You have 24 hours to claim."
Since I had made a purchase last month at Best Buy I thought it was legitimate and I clicked on the link (it was highlighted in blue). I was immediately re-directed to the ZIINGA PENNY AUCTION web page. I'd heard that penny auctions are a scam so I searched on Google and discovered this site of scam phone numbers. Fortunately I was not drawn into their scam! I will contact Best Buy and express my anger at the fact they've obviously sold or shared my customer information!
Don't fall for this fraud and complain to Best Buy if you receive a similar text.

Text stating I had won a prize based upon an entry the previous month. Claims to be from Best Buy. Link provided (www.bestbuy.ca.wonacontest.com) takes you to Zinga.com. Scam.
