Got the fake fraud alert text, then a call 2 minutes later. Classic one-time-passcode scam.
Very convincing. Asked me to "move my money to a safe account" because an employee was stealing. That is always a scam.
Exact same thing happened to me last week.
Family emergency scam. They tell you not to tell anyone. Agree on a family code word.
