I got a text message this morning from a number in NJ… Stating that they owed me a refund and to call a number in the 856 area code. The company stating they owned me the $$ was U.S. Tech Services.
Well I called and they said they owed me a refund and wanted to send it to me. When I said they could just cut me a check and mail it to me, nope they wanted to do a direct deposit… “Warning Bells” went off. I asked what it was exactly for… “we repaired your computer and over charged you”.
Wrong, I do my own computer repairs, assembly and loading… I do my own diagnostics. This was a scam to get into my bank account. What they would do is route a small deposit into your account, to verify it was real. Then do one or more withdrawals from that account to a third party.
SCAM folks… Don’t fall for it.
