I received a text regarding the purchase of a product from a company I am not an active member. The text said they got my information from the company website, but I have no links to myself, nor could I just "search" for myself. Beware!
I received a text message from this number stating that they had received my name from a website that I am associated with. They asked for my email and I sent her to my business email. She then sent the following.
I want you to Place the order for me, I got your sales from ...I need a STRAIGHT ORDER from you not Preferred Client. Kindly let me know if there is a discount to it.

I responded with a polite email stating that she would need to look for another consultant in her area.
Today I received another text stating that a payment had been sent. I responded that this was a little strange as I had not provided her with an address to send it to and referred her to the previous email.
When checking the address she listed, it comes up as the Hard Rock Cafe in St. Louis, Mo.
Please notify your attorney general as I have if you receive this type of message.
