Who called from 8602488730

I have received a text message from Kessler FCU (kessler federal credit union) {apparently} leaving this number so I can renew my online services. Of course I was suspicious - that's not my bank. lol  But I looked up the bank online and this was posted on their main page.....

Hello....I just received a text message asking to call the same number....the website it came from is "[email protected]"...when I typed in "bcmintl.org", a religous website came up, so beware if you get a text message like this.

Thanks-

This isn't SPAM...it's worse...Downright Fraud.  After banking hours I got a text message stating that my on-line services have been canceled from XXXCredit Union (out of MS) and I need to call this number (a FL area code; HMMMM).  Of course they want you to call and give them any and all account information...Identity Theft ALERT ...Beware!!!
To anyone this happens to call your cellphone company and let them know this is fraudulent so they can block this type of text from their corporate level.

My husband and I received a txt after banking hours on 11/23/10 saying our debit card had been blocked and we should call 228-447-4932 to have it turned back on.  We are out of town, traveling so this was stressful.  We did not call the number, but waited to call our bank directly this am and found that it was indeed a scam. I sure would like to see these people caught!
