I have been receiving texts from this number anywhere from 1 to 3 times a day for the last week. This is a scam and I would advise anyone who gets a text from this number DO NOT REPLY BACK! If you do reply back, your phone will be infected with a virus that's purpose is to steal anything that is of a personal nature such as cc numbers, phone numbers. One text I received, knew my child's name and the name of the pet. The last text I received, asked when the movers can come over and pick up the trailer. First they wanted me to immediately deposit a check into my account that I was suppose to have received in the mail from some unknown person. I then had to immediately text back that the check was deposited or wasn't received but I have to have it because according to this unknown person, they contacted the USPS and was told that I did receive the check. It's 1:55 am and I just received a text with nothing more than a ? mark. I spoke to my cell phone provider and told them what was going on. They said that I CAN block the number to prevent me from texting me but I have to pay a monthly fee for it. SMH. These criminals must think that they can wear me down by texting so that I will reply back to them so they can hack my phone. I DON'T THINK SO!
