Smishing Scammers
Queja 167997 Detalles

Based on the topic in the weekly email about bogus bestbuy smishing attacks, I went back through my phone to review all cases of smishing that I could find to add to the evidence. In addition to best buy, one time they used 'Target' as the company for the $1000 gift card. I am also including an earlier attack that may not have been related. I complained to my carrier in March, but was underwhelmed by their concern, and did not bother to repeat complaining on subsequent spams. My only notible damages are from my personal time to report/ignore the spams. I did not click or reply to any of them.
