I got two text messages. the second after not responding to the first...the second in all caps, announcing the "importance" of the update...it's bs. so don't respond!
I got a text message from [email protected] saying "[aler] Sears update. Call 7249289184" When I called I got a Robo voice saying it was from Sears and requesting that enter my card number. I don't have a Sears card.
got this text also. i just authorized a large purchase yesterday and thought this might be legitimate. i called and foolishly entered in my cc #. called mastercard, talked to them, and they didn't know anything about it. transferred to the authorization dept, and what was funny is that they also had an automated prompt for my cc #. I entered it again, figuring the # is no good anymore, and authorized only the amount and company that is legitimate. i feel stupid, but they told me I'm not liable for any unauthorized charges.
