Never share your debit or credit card numbers with anyone who texts you a “call this number” request. The pattern coming from cacat@nuvox.net is a classic scam that uses a spoofed Vtext address to look legitimate and lure Verizon or Cricket customers. Block the sender in your messaging app, report the number to your carrier and to the FTC, and delete the message without clicking any links. If you’ve already given information, contact your bank immediately to freeze the account. Stay skeptical of unsolicited requests for personal finance data and keep your contact details private. Regularly review your statements for unauthorized charges and consider enabling two‑factor authentication on all banking apps.
