Oh dear, did you get a text message from your bank, telling you to call an 800 number right away?
Hon, it's just another scam.
My credit union actually has fliers posted, warning customers to NOT respond to these text messages. It's just another variation on the phishing schemes that too many people fall for.
If you get an urgent text message from your bank, do yourself a huge favor. DON'T call that phone number that's so conveniently provided in the body of the text. Don't hit reply either. Instead, call your bank on the regular number and let them know what's happening. They may actually ask you to come in, or may tell you to ignore and delete the message.
In any case, don't fall for the BULL DROPPINGS! Never, ever give your personal bank information to anyone. If it really was the bank, they'd have all your info!!
Be smart in the New Year!

Are We Out Of Tin Foil Yet?
Are we out of tin foil yet?
You know, the stuff people use for those silly tin foil hats?
I am so tired of the conspiracy theorists that I actually wrote about them in my other blog, the one I use for my political rantings, www.wobbling-down-the-middle.blogspot.com.
Did you know that no matter what you tell a conspiracy theorist, no matter how many hard facts you provide, you can't convince them that the rantings of their conspiracy of the month are a bunch of BULL DROPPINGS?
In fact, you'll just be considered a part of the great conspiracy?
Amazing...
Look, when someone you know starts ranting and raving about Obama, about the upcoming riots, about the dissolving of the Second Amendment of the Constitution, just roll your eyes and send them to www.snopes.com.
Yeah, I know, they won't read it. And if they do, they won't believe it.
But at least you tried...
I don't think we'll ever run out of tin foil for those silly hats. Darn it all.
