Beware!!! Just a heads-up to Verizon subscribers out there. I just got a phishing scam phone call purporting to be from Verizon. It was a recording saying that I had been awarded $78 to be applied to my next months bill. It said to claim my award, I needed to go to verizon78. The normal webiste for Verizon Wireless, however, is verizonwireless. The verizon78 domain is registered to someone in the Dominican Republic. I went to verizon78 to see what was there. It looks pretty much like the actual Verizon website with a big button to click here to claim your $78. Once you do that, it asks you to enter your mobile phone number, your Verizon password and last 4 digits of your SSN. Dont fall for it! If you enter your information in that box, youve basically handed yourself over to identity thieves. Theyll probably be buying iPhones for the entire population of the Dominican Republic using your Verizon account!
