Fell for the Best Buy Offer scam.... only gave my address and name.. but still annoying....you go three screens deep and they say... not offered in your area... TOTALLY BOGUS... ugh.. I'm smarter than this...
Scam text regarding gift to the first 1000 respondents for a $1000 walmart card. This is a second number this past week with a similar scan but different origination number--this one supposedly Cincinnati. As noted above, the scammers are phishing for personal information and accounts, and the one last week downloaded a program to get all private information, passworks and accounts from a person's computer. A local television station's scam reporter had contacted the state division of consumer affairs to report the information. BEWARE!
Text message offering me a $1000 WalMart gift card came in at 5:09AM Central time. I just wish these people would leave me alone so I wouldn't have to keep calling ATT to remove the charge.
Text message at 5:30AM central time offering a $1000 WalMart gift card as well. Was pretty annoyed to be woken up to send me a scam text message. I don't even know how they got my number. I feel like this should be illegal since not everyone's phone even covers text message charges. So ridiculous.
