Do not call 1-347-745-8631. The number is being used by cybercriminals in an attempt to steal their potential victims’ personal, account and financial information. The cyber criminals do this by sending out phishing text messages like the ones below claiming the recipients' bank accounts have been put on hold. The phishing message then asks the recipients to call the same number in order to remove the hold on their accounts.

A Sample of the Phishing Text (SMS) Message

FRM:13477458631

MSG:Your C U card has been put on hold. Contact us immediately at 1-347-745-8631

If the recipients call the number, they will get an automated message asking them to input all of their personal information, including their social security numbers, bank account numbers and other information the cyber criminals need in order to gain access to their potential victims’ accounts, steal their money and use their accounts fraudulently.

Recipients of the phishing text or SMS message, who have called 1-347-745-8631 and submitted to their information, are asked to contact their bank for help and report it to the police.
