Received a text message from this number claiming that I had won a $1,000 Best Buy gift card. They body of the text stated that my entry last month had won and directed me to a website that DID start out as "WWW.Bestbuy.com" but ended with a jumble of other letters that do not look legitimate. And to enter a code to claim my prize. After some investigation I discovered that this is an ongoing scam in order to obtain personal information that can then open you up to identity theft.
