I really hate scammers. I hate thieves and bad people. Don't fall for this. The Better Business Bureau is warning consumers about a new text message scam that's fooling people into sharing their personal information with thieves.

Con artists send people texts that look like an alert from their bank. The message says you need to update your profile and then provides a link to a website.

The URL may even include the name of your bank, but once you click on the link, it takes you to a form that asks you to "confirm" your identity by entering your name, user ID, password and/or bank account number.

The BBB says that even if it really is from your bank, you shouldn’t fill it out. Instead, you should log in to your online bank account through a secure network.
