Fake T-Mobile reward texts try to trick people before points "expire"

Scammers are sending fake T-Mobile text messages that say reward points are about to expire in order to trick people into clicking a link and giving away account, personal, or payment information. The messages create urgency so people act quickly without checking whether the text is real.


Who is at risk

T-Mobile customers, especially anyone who receives a text about expiring rewards or account benefits, is most at risk.

What to watch for

Watch for unexpected text messages claiming points or rewards are about to expire, especially if they include a link and urge you to act right away.

What to do

Do not click the link in the text; instead, open the official T-Mobile app or website directly to check your account, and delete the message.
