Received a text bofa@vtext.com: Subject: Bank of America. Please Call Now: 312-224-1635. I didn't think banks did business via text. I'm glad I researched. Thank you all for the heads up.

They text my husband and I saying they are Bank of America. In one of the messages they mention a check. We realized it was a scam since we don't do business with B of A.

Yeah, just got one saying Bank of America. Thanks for the heads up!!

I have also received a text message from these people. I am located in south central PA and they referenced Susquehanna Valley Federal Credit Union (FCU) and I of course do not have any affiliation with this bank. They are a very small operation, and non of their numbers correlates with this one. I have notified this bank of the phishing scam so that they can properly relay caution to others. When your bank mentions card numbers, they are supposed to give you the last 4 digits, not the first six.
They probably should not try to scam people who have worked at a bank for over four years!!!
Do NOT reply!!! This is a SCAM!!!!!
If anyone is every unsure about anything, call the bank themselves and they can verify information with you. Many time fraudsters will post things regarding the bank or banks you do actually use!!

I have been receiving text messages from "alert@universityhealthfcuj.org" with the following message:
Your University Health F.C.U Card 409186XXXXXXXXXX has been deactivated.To activate call 3122241636
When I called the number, a female automated voice answered, "Welcome to our 24 hours telephone banking. Please follow the next steps to easily reactivate your card within a few minutes. You will be asked to provide three additional pieces of information including your card number. Please note that for your security all calls may be monitored or recorded and are used to improve the services we provide. Please enter your 16 digit card number." and then it waits for you to enter sixteen digits.
I suspect it uses the Luhn algorithm to try and "verify" a legitimate card number as it rejected the random numbers I inputted. When attempting to escape the system, another IVR voice with a male European accent came on providing error messages. All in all, this is definitely not a legitimate entity. Whoever it is, the solely seek to gain someone's banking information.

Just got their text. Says "Your National Bank of Blacksburg Card # has been eactivated. To activate call 3122241636"
On Sunday? Really? Not even my bank.
| Joe 2012-06-17 14:01:43 Unknown |
Not to get smart on you, but all or most card have 16 digits.
| Rusty 2012-06-17 13:16:18 Unknown |
This is not only a SCAM, but FRAUD in the first degree. They are using various bank names to lure you into providing them with personal information that is later used for identity theft. Complain to Verizon as they are the one's who provide this fictitious number. The FBI also has a site where you can report illegal Internet activities.

I just got the same. I know it's a scam, but want to know if anyone knows how to get them to not contact me again. I have no interest in calling a Chicago based number.
| k 2012-06-17 12:23:30 Unknown |
Got the same text saying my card was deactivated...dont even have a card.
| Larry Tezekjian 2012-06-17 04:16:01 Unknown |
Just got the same text. U can tell the automation is cheap. Report to FBI!!!
| MS 2012-06-16 22:30:24 SMS |
Just received a phishing text saying "your Community bank and trust card has been deactivated" please call 312-224-1636 ....SCAM.... not a bank that we have ever dealt with.
| morgan greywolf 2012-06-16 22:29:50 Unknown |
they also claim to be CBT Florida. Note how in the text they give you the first six digits if "your" card. Not the last 4. Those First six digits are not unique, they are particular to your bank. Do not call the number. This is a scam.

Ran the number through a search engine, and here I am. I hate folks like this...it's FRAUD, a SCAM, DON'T CALL, don't worry...it's not your bank card.
