Type of a scam Identity Theft
I received a text message from Rogers telling me that my phone number had been ported. I then proceeded to go to my local Rogers (because Rogers had removed all services off my phone) and I am in the process of getting my old phone number back. The scammers had already changed my email address password and I am now going though all my passwords and changing them. I am also changing all of my credit cards and banking information.
