9047853013 Scam: Fake Text Message

Hello everyone and welcome to my review of the fake text messages that have been received lately by quite a number of people from the phone number 9047853013.  The messages claim that the receivers payment is on Hold and they should call a certain number to get this solved and that the number is from AT and T.

About the scam

The scam is a common one that is sent by cyber criminals who will be using different numbers at times. They are not from AT and T and want to scam you in one of the various ways we will be discussing. Firstly the scammers may be trying to get you to call a premium rate number. A premium rate number is a phone number that is charged for the services that are provided by the receiver. So when you call the cost of the call is vey high and scammers will be getting paid for the calls they receive and you will be going charged at a real high rate on the call.

This may also be a trick to make you give them your credentials such as your bank card details and the like if they can get you to give it. There are chances of being redirected to sites that contain malware software and so yo want to be careful.
