No idea who this is but it definitely smells of rotten phish. Don't fall for it.

just got this one; def scam

THIS IS FRAUD.  Same text as others have reported.  CSCU is "Card Services for Credit Unions" and appears to be a legitimate business based in Clearwater, FL. A call (from a different phone) to 866-692-8575 yields an automated voice that asks the caller to input the card number, expiration date, and pin number.  When given a bogus number, the voice comes back with "card number does not match our records, please try again..."  THIS IS FRAUD.  No way to know if CSCU is behind it or involved in any way (i.e. having been compromised by hackers who may own the email account www@cscu.net).  The real key is who pays for and controls the toll-free number 866-692-8575.

Got this same text massage today. I'm the in LA area. I'm certain this is another scan via text

After I emailed abuse@cscu.net, I received this response:

"Thank you for reporting the suspicious messages you are receiving.

Card Services for Credit Unions, Inc. (CSCU) does not communicate with cardholders directly. We will never ask for your account information or for your personal identification information. Unfortunately, third-party hackers are sending out fraudulent text messages and e-mails with the cscu.net domain name. These people are not affiliated with CSCU in any way.

We are working to fix this situation as quickly as possible and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Your credit union will never e-mail or text you for your account or personal identification information.

We suggest that you also contact your mobile phone service provider to block the fraudulent texts.

If you have any questions, please e-mail CSCU at abuse@cscu.net"

www@cscu.net is a DECOY, non-functional email account.  I received this:

"www@cscu.net
The recipient's e-mail address was not found in the recipient's e-mail system. Microsoft Exchange will not try to redeliver this message for you. Please check the e-mail address and try resending this message, or provide the following diagnostic text to your system administrator."

...when I emailed them this morning.

Hello everyone I work in a credit card fraud department and I have come across this a few times today do not call the number back we are seeing counterfeit cards in Romania after the information is provided to the 866 number on the text. If you gave the information out please call your bank or credit union to check on recent transactions.

I got this same text message this morning (I have T-Mobile).  I knew right away this must be a scam, as your bank/credit union already has your account information on file and would never send you a request asking for it.  I hope nobody called the number and entered in their information.

I got my call an hour ago.  I don't have an account anywhere, so i figured it was the lamest phish scam ever.  I am in Austin, TX.

yeh happenend to me also. I did not respond!

Same msg recvd 3 Jan 7:20 AM

I recieved the same message on jan 3, 2010. I do not have a credit union account. I just tried to call the number but the line is not valid right now. I am very concerned with one of the responses above from fraud dept saying they are making cards in romania. a month or two ago my b of a account was hacked into and wiped out by someone in romania using atm machines. This is serious I hope my account is still not compromised. I should contact my bank about this suspicious text. be carefull everyone.

received same txt 1/02/10 informing me that there were discrepencies with a Credit Union acct. i dont have an acct. with them but i was still concerned and called, when i heard the automated msg i knew that this was def a scam and hung up ASAP!!!! These people are evil!!!!!!!!!!!! Watch out!!!!!!!!!!
