Scammers are getting more clever...
🚨🚨🚨🚨Scammers are becoming more and more clever. Thankfully iv become much more aware of their tactics since I had multiple instances of fraud on my accounts during Covid. Many of us out there did and were not even the boomers who are even more susceptible 😔
I had not logged into my account this morning and immediately called the number to see what was going on. It sounded like a SoFi customer service agent and the first thing they asked was my name and last 4 of my social. I said I wasn't comfortable giving that yet because they hadn't even asked why I was calling and I blindly called the number listed in the text message.
I told him to wait one moment while I checked to even see if the number I was calling was a SoFi number and it immediately popped up as fraud via a Google search and I told him so. The guy didn't even flinch or argue with me. Just said "ok well thank you for calling SoFi, have a good day!"... the AUDACITY lol
Stay vigilant pple! Even if it had been real, it only takes a second to Google the number to be sure it's who you should be speaking with!
