Recieved a text, said he was from hawaii, moving down to my area...which is very up from hawaii...wanting me to email him my information to watch his son...got my info from care.com...need to know if this is a scam

I also received this same text message and I am trying to see if it is a scam as well

Wendy where do you live? He also emailed me wanting my info to watch his son, I live in indiana and was wondering if it is real or not. He said he was coming here for work

I am from IN also and received this message as well. This seems like a scam because so many of us have gotten this message.

Forward the text to 7726:

Security company Cloudmark created a spam messaging reporting service that nation’s major wireless carriers agreed earlier this year to start using. Now, customers of AT&T Mobility, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, Sprint and others can forward their text spam message to 7726. The mobile phone carrier will ask customers for the phone number that’s linked to the spam message so they and Cloudmark can start investigating.
