Scammy texts offering “refunds” for Amazon purchases
Scammers are impersonating Amazon by sending fake texts about recent purchases. The messages claim an item failed a “quality inspection” or was recalled, offering a refund without needing a return. Victims are told to click a link, but instead of a refund, it’s a phishing scam designed to steal personal or financial information. To protect yourself, never click links or reply to unexpected texts. If unsure, contact Amazon directly using official channels, not details from the message. You can also log in through the official Amazon website or app to check for recalls or account issues.
How are robocallers getting your phone number?
Illegal robocalls are more than a nuisance — they’re often scams. Sometimes numbers are dialed at random, but in other cases, companies trick people into giving their information and then sell it. The FTC recently settled with Response Tree LLC, which collected names and numbers from people seeking mortgage quotes, then sold the data to telemarketers making illegal robocalls about fake warranties, solar panels, hearing aids, and more. To protect yourself, research websites before sharing personal details, read fine print carefully, and know that sales robocalls are illegal without written consent. Report unwanted calls at DoNotCall.gov.
No, that’s not the IRS texting about a tax refund or rebate
Scammers posing as the IRS are now sending fake texts about “tax rebates” or refunds instead of threatening calls about tax debt. These messages look official but are phishing attempts to steal personal information or install malware if you click the link. To protect yourself, never respond to unexpected texts or share personal details. The IRS will never initiate contact by text, call, or email — they start with a letter. To check a refund, use the official IRS “Where’s My Refund” tool. Report suspicious IRS-related texts or emails.
