Beware of " a charge was made on your credit card" texts

[livinginthecountry]

I received a text from Chase Bank saying $64. had been charged at Target/CA, with a link. Since Chase has never sent me any notifications, I blocked the number and called the number on my card - sure enough, it wasn’t real. The only alert I have is for another card.

Good for you!
In this day of sneaky scams, we have to remain vigilant.
