Or, should I said SMISH. Wow! What a Fourth of July surprise! I got a text message today, claiming to be from Farmers and Merchants Bank. Interesting, since I don't have an account with them. Also, I don't give out my cell phone to anyone, other than family. The fact that the message wasn't personalized is enough to scream scam. Also the misspelled word. Here is the message I received:
Interesting enough, when the text message came in, it said the number it was from was 1010100004. I tried to look up the "1-888" online, but haven't come across any complaints about it yet. I hope that anyone who gets this phish attempt, doesn't fall for it.
