Frequently asked questions
What do scam texts usually look like?
A parcel fee, an unpaid toll, a bank alert, or "Hi Mum, this is my new number". They push you to act fast and to tap a link or reply.
What should I do with a scam text?
Do not tap the link or reply. Forward it to 7726 (in the UK and US) to report it, then delete it.
Is it safe to paste a message here?
Yes. Nothing in it is opened, and nothing is stored.
