Text message told me to call this number because my ATM card has been disabled.

this a call from scammers trying to steal your banking information. i saw a peice about it on the news this week.

Received landline message on 1# & text message on cell# from Health Faculities Federal Credit Union about debit card suspend call 877-526-9331 AND 866-227-9604. I don't have an account with this company. Trying to figure out how they got both home and cell#'s.

My mother received this text on her cell phone:  "This is an automated message from Health Facilities FCU your ATM card has been suspended. To reactivate call urgent at 877-526-9331"  I did call the number from a different phone and got an automated answering service that states that it is Health Facilities FCu and to reactivate my atm card I needed to type in the account #, then they ask for the expiration date, and the 4 digit pin number!  I didn't give them any information, but I was also unable to speak with a live person. I did find a company by the same name and I plan on emailing them. I have found other comments about this number and another name was used using the same number "Franklin Bank"

got a call today and 3 in the last 2 weeks from Franklin Credit asking to call them back at 877 353 3947.  sounds like they are back up to it.  number on caller id wouldnt come up just out of area.  never heard of them so thought I would research since I work in the finance field and found this site. wanted to let everyone know.

Got one today on a Sprint cell-text message from 877-283-7834@sc-back.com  - ther is a sc-bacnk.com it is a bank in scouth carolina. it says to call immediately at he #. Verification needed on your debit/atm card. thanks. when it texted back No way!! it came back unverified. but there is such a bank I just figure if my bank really does need me they can call me from a number i know or send me something in the mail. I hope all of Sprints customers are not hit-they seem to be the only ones!! it realy sucks-hope this number helps someone else not to get mixed p in anything.

Got same call from Franklin Bank, same number.
Husband twice in one day and son twice in one day. Both on Sprint Cells.
None of us called the number, son is cop, so we knew better.
We got the calls from two different numbers, the first one is: 877-496-6201
Second number was: 877-526-9331

We are an inbound call center and we are receiving the same calls representing themselves as Franklin Bank.  Our employees are also getting texts stating they need to call the number to re-activate their card.  We began receiving these texts and calls today.  We too attempted to call some of the numbers the calls are coming from and get a fast busy.  We hope this scam gets eradicated.

The same texts are going on in Texas. Boost Mobile phones are receiving texts to reactivate their atm cards with Franklin Bank.  I pray these thieves are unable to con anyone. I called the number and get a fast busy signal. Why would the FBI not want to get involved?

Thanks for your up front response sir ~ hope you're able to get the attention of the authorities.  Good luck and thanks.

I am the CEO of Health Facilities FCU in Florence, SC. We started gettoing phone calls from people early this afternoon. It appears from our investigation that Sprint/Nextell customers were targeted. We did have a number of members who called us but we received a large number of emails and phone calls from non-members. We have ttempted to get Sprint Corporate Security to respond to no avail and have had trouble getting the FBI involved. I have a meeting with the head of their cyper crime squad for th state of South Carolina tomorrow morning.

Thanks for all your posts. Hopefully they will help catch the bad guys.

I also received this message.  I was in a meeting at work along with 8 co-workers and within 15 minutes, we each got the text message to call about re-activating our suspended ATM card from Health Facilities FCU.  We called it and put in a "dummy" card number along with a pin and of course, they said "It was invalid" and to please try again.  Identity theft is on the rise, and I hope people realize what's going on before it's to late!

I have posted complaints and warnings on as many sites as I can think of and have just finsihed filing a complaint with the FTC. I can only hope that no one gave out their banking information to these people.

Same here Tim.  My mother received this text on her cell phone:  "This is an automated message from Health Facilities FCU your ATM card has been suspended. To reactivate call urgent at 877-526-9331"  I did call the number from a different phone and got an automated answering service that states that it is Health Facilities FCu and to reactivate my atm card I needed to type in the account #, then they ask for the expiration date, and the 4 digit pin number!  I didn't give them any information, but I was also unable to speak with a live person. I did find a company by the same name and I plan on emailing them.

Same message from Franklin Bank.

I got the same message. so did my wife, both parent-in-laws. This was sent on the sprint network. It identified a Fed. Credit Union. anyone have any additional intel. the 877# disconnected. called from secured line.

got a text message today, saying to call this number because my atm had been deactivated. i am not going to call this number. this is my work phone, and my bank does not have this number, nor does my bank use text alerts.
