Description

My Husband was contacted by an official looking text from boost mobile on October 14th at 8:17 pm stating: BOOST: Your account has been updated. Your phone number will be transfered to a new SIM or phone. If you didn't make this change reply STOP" He replied STOP We also received a call. We spoke to a representative, or so we thought that said he would look into it. He asked for a PIN. Looked into our account, and said nothing was changed and not to worry about it. We got up early, I received some strange texts from his phone asking for money from my debit card. My husband was right next to me, he grabbed his phone, and couldn't call out. He then saw his facebbook password was changed, and a message was put up asking if anyone had Boost Mobile. Next thing, went into his email, and it was said his number was TRANSFERRED. We filed a police report, then went into Boost mo ile. They wouldn't tell us where number was transferred to, nor would they shut it off! We have called several times, and told their working on it. While we sit here and keep watching our accounts being compromised. I was also sent the same text and blocked it. It is also being sent to other family and friends with Boost Mobile.
