11Received an SMS to Debicheck a Nedbank Credit Card Payment. I know this is bogus, because they tried to get me to authorise a DebiCheck last month as well for over R3000 for "NedCard". SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!!!
SMS said: Nobody wants to miss out on a good time, download mms to proceed. Delete straight away...
This is definitely not safe to open. It is not from Sanlam, FNB or Santam. Please report and delete the sms.
MMS message received - unknown sender. Uses my name, asks to download. Deleted because it seems suspicious.
Received a blank MMS with no text, no description and no supporting information whatsoever. Possible scam.
Two messages - first that I could qualify for a Premier Cheque Account prompting me to download MMS but with no indication from whom the message is. Second message 30 minutes later from +2782004809566. This time identified as FNB and offering me R2000 cash to switch to an FNB Premier Account.
Nedbank fue reportado como Estafa con el número 082-0080397
Received an sms informing me that a new Absa card was on its way. You are prompted to download a multi media file. I deleted the sms.
I received a text message with an Edgars statement from this number. I do not even have an Edgars account. Deleted it immediately. This number is definitely spam.
This number sent a text claiming to be from FNB bank. It wants you do download a multimedia file. SPAM! I deleted it just after I received it. I have seen many negative comments on Google for this number. They claim to be from the following (that I have read): FNB Santam Direct Access
Network doesn't allow me to open this mms.and I submitted job applications so I don't want to missed any of opportunities
