Have you recently received a text message…from your own phone number?
If so, do not click the link you were sent! You obviously didn’t send it to yourself. And your phone carrier, likely Verizon in this case, did not send it to you either.
According to Verizon Wireless, the company is currently investigating a mass spam text message campaign targeting its customers.
“Verizon is aware that bad actors are sending spam text messages to some customers which appear to come from the customers’ own number,” a Verizon spokesperson stated in a statement first provided to The Verge.
