Watch out for bank phishing texts. Overnight got the third one from this number. Each scam text is for a different bank.

Good thing you didn't click that link! Just ran it through my checker-there's been reports of malware on that site. Looks like the hosting company may have shut it down-here's the basics:
Quote:Website: rewards-rbc.890m.com
Redirecting to Website: error.hostinger.eu
Title: Error 403 - Forbidden
Both the redirect and the title are what give me that feeling
