Description

Received a two part txt message attempting to sound very personal like they have spoken with you before, rather than a more official business txt message. This message states that it’s following up on a “your personal loan request for $60,000.” Message states to connect to discuss the offer and next steps. Has the pseudo official , “text End to opt out.” Message followed by a very personal, “otherwise do you have a few minutes to talk?” Then there is a break in the message with a “if you no longer need the $60,000 just let me know.” No email or website or app listed and no links. Just a text response push to test for activity and an alternative number to sell to other clients to try and scam to. All signs point to a scam, soft phishing to lure you in and steal personal information to sell and/or directly steel from you.
