I just received a text message that stated:

[email protected]/
VISA (Card Blocked
Alert). For More
information please
call 1-877-543-7987
Thank You. /

Ofcourse I panicked and called thier number immediately,
and a computer answered and asked for my card number.
Something about the way it was asked, struck me wrong and
I hung up and called the number on the back of my card and my
bank told me that they have been getting reports of these fradulant
text messages lately. Most banks will NOT send out a text message,
for any reason.
Thought I would pass this along :D
