State Police Issue Text Scam Warning
New York State Police are issuing a warning about a new scam via text. Troopers say the text message alert will appear like it was sent from the bank and will have a way for you to “contently” contact them back. Police say to never give your personal banking account information by email, text message or over the phone. If you have questions or concerns about your banking accounts it’s best to contact your bank directly over the phone or in person.
