I received the fake text message from "AT&T" below about an "unsuccessful payment" and to call telephone number 661-689-3381. The problem is, I didn't attempt a payment and have never received this kind of text before. Customers beware!

Received the same message. My accounts are all current.
Same. Scam. Don't fall for it.
Also received this text scam. My credit card payment 3 days with ATT has been posted already (meaning payment was successful). These scammers must have access to ATT sales transactions for them to know we just purchased something and made a payment.
I received the same text from "AT&T," and I had just made a payment yesterday. Almost fell for it, but instead of calling that number, I went back in through AT&T's system to check on my payment and it said I was paid in full.
