Hey,

Yea i received a text from that same number this morning but it said something different. I've got things like this in the past so I know their just scams but it's interesting how they get our personal cell phone numbers.

My text said: "(From: PRM) Congratulations! You have been randomly selected to receive an account Credit, please visit http://doiop.com/vpro23"

I recieved the same exact txt as okcool at 11:01 this morning.

I just did. I figured it was bogus since I was in the middle of texting and a call when it came in.

The text showed:

(From:Verizon) Your VZW account is disabled by reasons of security enter link (some phony looking hyperlink verizondata.site.bz) and confirm your data

What dummies. But I bet over half the people that get this give up their information.

Additionally, all the texts I have received from Verizon regarding account information come from a different prefix of numbers
