Debit Card Phishing Text Messages
Friday, November 25, 2011
On Thanksgiving night, Connex received notification that some members may have received a text message containing some or all of the follow quote:
”CONNEX C.U. ALERT- Your CARD has been DEACTIVATED Please contact us at 203-717-4426. “.
This may be an attempt to “phish” data from an individual with the intent of using it for malicious activity. Connex Credit Union has and does not send text message alerts of this nature to its members. Connex Credit Union would never request sensitive information through a text message. It is important that you DO NOT respond to these types of messages. Protecting your sensitive information has and always will remain our highest priority.
