(800) 549-6135

Scammer. This was a text message that came through as Southeastern Financial saying my account is closed due to unusual activity. I have no account with this company, and if you call this number, they want your credit card number. Its a phishing scam and seems to be happening to Sprint customers in the 615 area code.

FUNNY...the victims of this text seem to be Sprint customers with 615 area codes.  I just received the message at 12:14 pm CST.

This is the second time I have received this same exact text. I too have a 615 area code Sprint number!

Southeast Financial seems to be a legit. Tennessee credit union.  They have published this notice on their web page, "Note: We have recently been notified that fraudulent text messages have been sent with reference to Southeast Financial. The message states, "Your SOUTHEAST FINANCIAL FCU account is closed due to unusual activity..." This message was NOT from our company and we would never contact you via a text message for any purpose.Readers please comment:  Does your cell phone have a 615 area code?  Is it a Sprint phone?

just got the same message--sounds like a PHISHING expedition to me too.

I just called Sprint. They say they can't trace unbilled calls, but I should get a phone number when I get my bill. Probably the 800 number. Is anyone falling for this? Maybe I'll forward this no. to the FBI. Not that anything will happen.j

Same message at 9:00 pm CST although it was dated 6:55 am.  I wonder if Sprint is behind this.  In the past they have sold their cell phone numbers to "third party marketers," and their customers down the river.

Same thing for me. Don't know who Southeast financial is, but I'm calling Sprint to see if they can block this.

Same.....Just Now

Just got the text at 6:49pm (CST). Said the same as those above. I knew it was a scam so I came here. :)I wonder how they got our numbers...and better yet, how it came across as "southeastfinancial" as opposed to a phone number.

same as others only they sent me a text.

My son just received this on his phone.  Does anyone know who this is?...or how they got my son's number?

received same message, only as text on my mobile phone; reported to police and the real credit union
