Political donation scam texts – how to protect yourself!
Summary — +18554869064
Expert Opinion
Block the number immediately and never reply to any message asking you to confirm a political donation. These texts from 855‑486‑9064 mimic a “Security Check” from donation platforms, but they never include a verifiable sender ID. Scammers pull public donation records to add real dates and amounts, making the request look authentic. If you didn’t initiate the contribution, delete the message and report it to your carrier and the FTC. Keep your donation history private, use two‑factor authentication where available, and monitor your credit‑card statements for unexpected charges. Avoid clicking links and never share personal info with unknown callers.
