Do not call 1(410)100-008 and delete text messages that came from the same number. This because the number is being used by cybercriminals who are attempting to trick potential victim in calling it and disclosing their personal, financial and other sensitive information.

A Fake Text Message From 1(410)100-008

FRM:80095921633893366614@yahoo.com
MSG:Wells Fargo Notice: Please go to

Recipients of the fake messages who have called 891-246-7228 and given out their banking information are asked to contact their banks for help, change the password of their online accounts, and contact their local authority if they gave out other sensitive information.

Also using this number to text the following message:

I receive at least one of these a week and I have tried to block it, reported it to wells Fargo and still keep receiving these repeatedly. You would think that with all the technology available they would find these people and prosecute them, for a couple of bucks you can search for a persons life history, the government can track you down, but they cannot stop these people, or do they not want to find them? There has to be a way and working in the IT field I will definitely research this and at the very least find a way to hack them and destroy their devices.
