Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, these texts masquerade as AT&T messages to lure you. The language often promises a gift or claims a bill is already paid, a classic phishing ploy. Never click links or reply to unknown numbers; instead, open your carrier’s official app or website to check your account status. If the message seems off, block the sender and report it to the FTC or your mobile provider. Keep your contact list clean, enable spam filters, and educate friends and family about the signs of scam texts. Staying skeptical and verifying directly can stop these tricks before they reach your inbox.
It seems too good to be true when they claim to be from ATT, stating my bill is paid and offering a gift, all through a daily text message.
