I just got a call and voicemail from this number.  The girl said I needed to call 888-266-2695 immediately for an important business matter.  That was all she said.

I found out today from an elderly acquaintance what happens when you call the 704 area code number. In her case, she got an automated system which told her a hold had been placed on her credit card and in order to get the hold removed she needed to provide the credit card number, expiration date and the three digit number on the back. She's wise in her 85 years, so she immediately hung up and called the customer service number on the back of her card since the banks were closed today. Whoever she talked to advised her they were aware of this scam and it evidently is being sent via Verizon Wireless accounts. I am not sure about everyone else who has posted on this site, but I personally know five other people who received the same text, all yesterday, and they are all with Verizon. Just FYI.

I received a text message that said: (Unverified-Sender) (9174848974) Indiana.B A N K. KNES alert 248129.Please call 7042712186.  When I called I also got the recording that my Indiana Bank & Trust Mastercard was locked and told me to do the same thing that Sam said it told him to do.

Both hubby and I got texts from this number, today. I knew right away it was a scam. Not only do I not recognize the number, but we don't do any business with texts. As hubby said, where are the cyberpolice when you need them? How on earth do these creeps get our numbers? Isn't that what the Do Not Call List is supposed to be for?

Sent a text message as an alert from a bank I don't use. It came from a cell phone from Hassad (Indian), with this number as the one to contact. Tried disguising it as an alert.

I just received a message saying it was from my bank here in Illinois.  I have never applied for nor receive a payday loan onliine or anywhere else.  I never applied for a loan on line.  I usually use paypal for online payments.  On occassion I use a credit card, but how would they know about this particular bank account that is not tied to any credit card I have or to my cell phone? I knew it was phoney because today is Sunday and the banks are closed, but I really am not feeling comfortable since I do not know how my bank and cell number have been compromised.

I got a text asking me to call this number for a First Midwest Bank FBJL alert 364498. They wanted me to call a cell number in a nearby city (The same number the call came from).  I did a reverse number and it was a cell phone in a different state from Gastonia, NC.

My wife received the same text at 3:48pm CT, First.Midwest.Bank RWJD Alert 425794, please call 704-271-2186. The text was from 217-576-1713. Of course the first thing I did was check the number on whocallsme.com and viola! Looks like we are not the only ones out there who owe money! :)

I just recieved a text message from a different number than 704-271-2186. This is what the text message said, exactly as it was formatted -

"First.Midwest.Bank SPJF alert 167951.Please call (704)-271-2186"

Of course, I did not call, just responded that I am not associated with that bank.

I just now received the same text from (unverified sender) and the number was 217-293-4241 and it read First Midwest Bank SDEE alert 42777 and please call 704-271-2186.  I am so lucky and gratefl I Googled and found this site.  It's a relief to know it's just a scam and I didn't fall for it.  Deleting it now lol.

I just received a text claiming to be First Midwest Bank and asking me to call back 704-271-2186 as apparently everyone else on this forum.  Also came through as an LBLB alert 384155-whatever the heck that is supposed to mean.  Googled the number and found this forum-thank goodness.  Although it was weird to begin with since I do no business with First Midwest Bank.   Guess the scammers are going to have to up their game-what freaks, get some real jobs besides trying to take advantage of people!!!!

I also got a very similar First Midwest Bank text just now but from 217-653-2252. I think I will message the bank and let them know. Hopefully no one falls for it. For a few seconds I was tempted to call the message just in case. I'm glad that I Googled the numbers first.

Just received a text telling me to call 704-271-2186. The message is as follows:

"From: Unverified-Sender
(9173873258) Indiana.B A N K. JEDL alert 661556. Please call 7042712186."

When I dialed the number to verify it was a scam, an automated message stated that my master card had been locked and to press 1 to unlock it and press 2 to leave. If you press 1 it will immediatly ask for your 16 digit card number. Obviouslly a scam.

We have just been informed that there is another fraudulent text message going around that appears to be from IBT. It is being sent to customers and non-customers and is a phishing scam. We are working with authorities but please do not respond to the text or call the phone number. Please do not give out any personal information such as your account number, social security number, or debit card number. The fraudulent text looks similar to this:

"(9172669135) Indiana.B.A.N.K. NSGK alert 996661. Please call 7042712186"
