sure enough someone with a heavy accent came on the line asking a series of questions all designed to get me to say the word "Yes"
after a few questions I told her that my toast had just popped up and I needed to go butter them.....
be careful, they're out there and they're getting slicker and more devious every day

Never ever click on a link in a text message or email saying there is an error or charge to an account. Always go directly to the appropriate web page and check the info there. Once you click the link you open yourself to attack.
