I received 2 message's , one after another yesterday saying ' Colin, your bank account has been suspended ...please follow this link to verify your details.
You may have difficulty logging in .. and access may be denied until you confirm your details.
My immediate thought was ... What BS, I'll go and log on to my Bank and see if this is indeed a legitimate message from the Bank.
Well I had no problem logging in straight away ( that confirmed my suspicion ) ..... My Bank has a page where you can ' lookup ' the latest scams regarding to their financial institution......and there it was for all customers to read, was the scam message I received regarding the sms message sent to my Mobile.
My Bank states ' that we ( the bank ) will never ever send an ' sms ' asking you for bank details.... period '
The only thing that still has me wondering is .... how did these ' scammers' get my mobile number and they new my first name.
