GBC Friends & Family, please note:

Pictured below, is an example of a phishing attempt where text message is being used as a means to trick people into believing that their Facebook account has content that has been removed due to it being inappropriate. Clicking on the associated link would lead the unsuspecting victim to a page where their personal information would be requested - if credentials are given up, identity theft, fraud attempts, and the sale of personal information are at stake. Err on the side... of caution if you receive a text message with a link from an unfamiliar source/number, DO NOT CLICK the link! Delete the message and block the number!
