scam text from 254-379-0002
"customer issue eppi card frozen. please call at 248-642-0353"

Noticed a familiar number on one of the postings.  1-866-932-9605 is the number that shows on my phone when I deal with Comcast.  At the beginning of the call before the agent comes on you are offered two options to do a survey, (which is based on the quality of service you received from the agent).  If you pressed #1 to do a survey after the call, or press #2, if you don't want to do the survey. Once your call is finished with the customer service rep, you will get a call back (showing that #), so that you can proceed with the survey questions.  So, in this case, that number is a legit one that I've run across.

I have been receiving calls from these #'s 877 543 7894, 1888 476 8698 & 1866 932 9605,  2x a day for about 2 weeks, i have not answered any of them and they won't leave a message, today i got a text, called back, no answer, automated machine asking for a 16 digit card #, hung up, called my bank everything was fine... i agree that this is a total SCAM!!!  Don't even answer the phone.

The test we recieved came from 254-379-0004  it stated our eppi-card account was frozen and instructed us to call  254-230-9952..   We do not have an eppi-card either... I wonder how many people who do have eppi-cards called it back????


 We all need to take a stand and get these scammers stopped...

Great idea.  I'm going to call our sheriff office.

Received similar post but new number. 254-379-0003 and call back number is 518-943-1625.
This was sent to me today, 9 April 2010. Which is listed according to reverse lookup as The Boston Co. Management Services, Catskill, NY 12414.

They just got us and electronically cyphered out all the money..I was told the SECRET SERVICE is suppose to be involved when it ends up being such a larger H&R BLOCK SCAM..PEOPLES IDENTITIES AND INFOMATION STOLEN...Why isnt the secret service doing there job...

I received a text saying the same thing as everyone else regarding H & R Block and the call came from 254-793-0003  and aske me to call #772-646-0611. I wish I knew how to block these calls.

i received the text h&r block emerald card frozen.  called my carrier and told them to block it!!

Keep an eye on your cell bill, we had an extra $9.99 per month on ours from a third party. Not sure how it happened because we never reply to these spam texts.I got the H & R Block text this a.m. and just ignored it.

MY daughter and I have both gotten texts minutes apart....Claims to be an H & R BLOCK emeral account frozen... DON'T HAVE !   Scammers go home.  I've got enough drama.  Thanks for this look up site !

I recieved a message from 1-254-379-0002 after logging on to hr Block website. On the website it asked me for my information and my number...looked exactly like hr block website. i put my info in and got scammed out of money now I have to wait to see if i even get it back. iam not a rich lady and now the little bit of money i did have is gone. they also texted me from that number and left a call back number that was close to my location. i called it and it was a computer asking me for my pin thats when i realized i had been had.....nice people out there in this world huh?

CALLED THE LOCAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE AND THEY CAME TO ME AND PROVIDED A CREDIT CARD # AND INFO TO GIVE THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM. THE NUMBER THEY GAVE ME IS TO A TRACED CARD USED BY THE "CYBER CRIMES" DIVISION TO STOP THESE SCAMS. JUST A LITTLE F.Y.I. FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO HELP OUT..... CALL THE LAW THIS KIND OF STUFF HAS TO STOP.

I got the H&R Block "emerald card" text - in this day and age, anyone that doesn't realize a scam is headed their way if it involves a credit card when they did not INCITE the action, will likely never understand it.  Being scammed might be the only way for some of the herd to learn properly...screw with someones wallet, the learning curve increases exponentially.

I received a text from 254 379 0002
gave the incorrect card #, expiration and pin
I hope they get busted.
# is a cell phone in Texas from what lookup # states.
is a nextel #

Received 2  calls from 254-379-0002. Both stated that there is a customer issue, one for an h&r block emerald card and the other for a USAA card, and to call 585-419-6639.  I don't have cards by either of these institutions. SCAM ALERT!!!

just recieved a text from 254 379 002 saying:
customer issue, hsbc account frozen. please call 585 442 6363

I googled both numbers, which led me here and it's obvious that this is a scam. hsbc, from what google results showed, is a bank and issues debit/credit cards.

Got two calls from 254-379-0002 with the same scam txt. Looked up the area code (254) and searched for EPPI CARD. Came up with a customer service number for a bank that issues the EPPI card for the state of TX. Called the number and went to the fraud department. They told me 1) The message is a fraud /scam and that they have had lots of questions about it. 2) They DO NOT SEND TEXT MESSAGES.

It seems like you get two text messages and then if you don't call they drop you and move to the next sucker.

At least I hope that's the case. The customer service number at the bank I called was 866-729-6159 and went in as a fraud issue.

I received the same scam text from 254-379-0002

"customer issue eppi card frozen. please call at 248-642-0353"

I may have screwed up because I put in 1234567890123456 to see what it would do... I get a second message about an hour later. Ooops? I hope they stop sending me messages I don't owe anybody child support

Got 2 text messages with this saying eppicard is frozen. Did a search on eppicard and found out it is the card used by child support enforcement to receive payments. TOTAL scam because I do not have an eppicard. I have nooooooooooo credit cards!

Received text message on cell phone asking to call back this number with message "customer issue, eppi card frozen please call at 248-642-0353. Called 248-642-0353-Eppi Card Telephone Banking- asks for 16 digit number of card- no option to bypass to associate. Have no Credit card, especially for telephone banking. Total phishing scam. Tried calling the original number and it says it is a wrong number and some other bull and then Message 7.
