I received the same text as everyone. I've received this or similar texts about a Credit Union west account about 10 times over the past year, also with Sprint. What an idiot scammer this person is--at least use a bank or credit union that a lot of people hold accounts with.
Like everyone else, this text message, "customer issue, credit union west service frozen. please call at 201 484 8652" has come into my phone four times (twice today) and also on my wife's phone. We haven't responded. We're in AZ with Sprint also. Thanks for everyone's posts to confirm this as a scam.
I got exactly the same. Message at about the same time as everyone else. I put a fake 16 digit credit card number. It wanted an expiration date and my 4 digit pin. I tried to get a cust svc rep on the phone. It hung up on me. This is the 2nd time I have received this message on my cell phone
