Scamming - Fraud
If you are asked to sign into your Verizon account by going to this website: hxxp://www.myvz120.com, please DO NOT. This is another phishing or fake website created by scammers to trick you into stealing your Verizon sign-in information. The website may look and feel exactly like the legitimate Verizon website located at this address: http://www.verizonwireless.com/,but it is not.
If you try to sign-in to this fake website by entering your userID / cellphone number and password, it will be sent to the scammers behind this fake website. With your sign-in information, these people will be able to gain access to your account.
With access to your account, they may deactivate your device, add their own and rack up international calls and internet usage. They may also steal your identity.
Again, the Verizon website IS NOT located at website address hxxp://www.myvz120.com, instead it is located at http://www.verizonwireless.com/. Always sign into your Verizon account from this website.
If you were tricked into entering your sign-in information on this malicious website (hxxp://www.myvz120.com), please change your password.
You can change your password online:
If you are unable to change your password, please contact Verizon by telephone at 1-800-VERIZON.
