(CLARK HOWARD)
Posing as your bank, scammers will send text messages that say that you need to update your profile information and provide a link to a bogus website.
So many people take the bait because the scammer’s website looks legit – often using your bank’s logo.
One of Clark’s radio show listeners passed along this text message that he recently received from a scammer that was pretending to be Chase Bank.
But he knew it was a scam because he doesn't even have an account with the bank.
