It has come to our attention that some H&R Block clients are receiving what appear to be text messages from H&R Block Bank regarding their accounts. They are told to call a local number and when they call it, the call is disconnected. Part of the text message may ask the client to call H&R Block to release their personal information. H&R Block does not send urgent or time-sensitive text messages asking clients to provide, update or confirm sensitive data. We our telling our clients the following information should they inquire:
This text is a scam and is not an H&R Block-created text.
DO NOT respond to the text.
DO NOT call the telephone number given in the text if one is given.
DO NOT under any circumstances provide any personal information such as your Emerald Card number, Social Security Number, date of birth or even your name in response to the text.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding your H&R Block Emerald Prepaid MasterCard, call the toll-free number on the back of the card, or call 1-866-353-1266

I had no idea about this scam that was happening nor had I ever heard of an Emerald card but I just got a text today saying "urgent" verify information immediately. I definately knew it was a scam but I couldn't resist calling the number to see what kind of crap they were spewing. I know I shouldn't have but what could they do by me just calling the number? Can they clone my cell phone?
