Just got this also.
I called the number and a very scary recording told me that my debit card has been suspended and press 1 to reactivate - course you need to give information like debit card info and SS etc. SCAM!!!
I just received the same text message from a [email protected] saying (EastWestBank) call: 323 331 9316. Your attention is needed. Someone know what it is about?

East West Bank would like to alert you about a current phishing scam directed at on-line banking users. The scam targets users by sending emails that appear to be from an official source and are designed to trick the recipient into clicking a link in the e-mail for the purpose of acquiring sensitive data, such as passwords or financial information.
The phishing e-mails claim to be from East West Bank and advise recipients to update account information by clicking a link that goes to a fraudulent web site. East West Bank did not send this email. East West Bank does not use emails to request personal information or update security tools.
Please be advised to NEVER click links or install programs suggested in emails, even if the email appears to be from an official or familiar source. East West Bank will never send client emails containing links to download software or applications.
