Hackers & Crackers are running rampant. NEVER click on a link that seems to come to a Social Media site. If you are still unsure, simply call the number that the text came from to confirm it is actually from the company that sent the text.
These phishing scams are designed to make you think there is a problem with your account and then sends you a link to fix the problem. The link doesn’t actually go to the site you think it is. It goes to a look-alike site which has a login link to the social media site. If you put in your login name and password you just gave them your credentials to login to that social media site.
In addition, many people use the same Username and Password for other things as well, which can then be gotten into with those credentials that the hacker obtained from you.
Although we are not security experts, if you have a suspicious text or email you want to get our opinion on send it to us.
