I got the same text saying my SECU card was deactivated and I do bank there. However, the moron that sent it obviously thinks everyone is as ignorant as they are. No bank would send a weekend text saying they deactivated your card
I also received a text from 256-347-2846 saying that my card was deactivated. I do not have a card with this bank. Complete scam. I will report it to the proper authorities.
“BREWERY C U NOTICE: Your CARD has been DEACTIVATED. Please call 414-491-7896”
5 reasons of epic fail:
1) I do not have a CARD through this Credit Union, let alone was even aware of it’s existence until today.
2) A bank would not ....text....you if your card/acct/etc was deactivated, no matter what the reason.
3) Texting source is from a different area code than said local only Credit union.
4) “please call” number is not even a number available on www.brewerycu.com contact list.
5) “please call” number is a freakin cell phone number (as well as text source, obviously)
how dumb do scammers think people are? What do they do, just punch in a bunch of random #’s and probable Banks within the vacinity and start spamming away?
