This situation is getting better. In the UK now there’s a big push among all the banks to ensure that phone numbers and links are never placed in texts. Rather they will only tell you to “ring the number on the back of your card“.
The banks got rather upset when the gov sent that COVID-19 text with a link in it. Silly move, and we’ve seen plenty of fruadsters take advantage of it.
- nicoburns 7y agoAt least the link was to gov.uk
- avianlyric 7y agoYeah, but now people are spoofing the phone number to get other links to appear in the same conversation as the COVID-19 message.
