Got a text claiming to be from AMEX, urging me to call this number because I’d “recently added a secondary device” to the app. Oddly, the SMS came from the same number I normally receive genuine Amex messages from.

Opinión del experto
Singular reports highlight a text mimicking American Express, urging a call to +442081789933 over a supposed secondary device addition in the app, originating from a trusted SMS source. This tactic exploits familiarity to erode caution, potentially leading to phishing traps where details are harvested. Evidence points to fraudulent intent, as legitimate entities rarely demand immediate callbacks via unsolicited texts. Verify independently by contacting Amex through official channels listed on your card or app. Block the number promptly and report to your network provider or Action Fraud. Enable two-factor authentication and monitor accounts for irregularities to safeguard privacy.
