Avis d’expert
Watch out for text scams claiming you owe a debt. These messages often use vague account numbers like “MB123456” and pressure you to call a toll‑free line, but they rarely give verifiable company details. Because the sender is typically a debt collector operating without proper licensing, threats of lawsuits or penalties are usually scare tactics. Do not share personal info or pay until you request written validation of the alleged debt. Block the number, report the texts to your carrier and the FTC, and consider filing a complaint with your state consumer‑protection office. Staying calm and verifying the claim can keep you from falling into a scam.

Following a familiar pattern, I received a text claiming I owed a debt, which was then followed by a threatening message. When I called the number, the representative claimed to be from an attorney's office and was able to access my file with limited information. As I asked more questions, she became increasingly flustered. I requested documentation regarding the debt, but they refused to provide any written proof. When I mentioned involving my attorney, she claimed it would be a conflict of interest, which I found amusing. The conversation ended there. A useful tip is to ask numerous questions when suspecting a scam, as this often leads to the scammer giving up.
