REF:COM7162.5.
I received this message saying it was Commbank. It said, "COMM: Security code 190499 for PAYiD request to FM CARS LTD. Unexpected code? Please call us urgently on 0361737829. REF:CO9323."
I called & it said "Weclcome to Commwalth Bank, we are tranferring your call to a representative & then I hear the person you are trying to reach is unavailable".
I usually am extremely mindful I never click on links or call back but for some reasons I called the number. No information was taken off me. But was wondering if they could get access to the security code via my messages (if they are tech savvy)? Should I be worried?
I also received a scam text message: COMM: Security code 190499 for PAYiD request to FM CARS LTD. Unexpected code? Please call us urgently on 0361737829. REF:CO9323.
