Have you received a suspicious text from yourself? If so, you’re not alone.
Many Americans, Verizon Wireless customers especially, have been receiving text messages from their own number.

You can report the scam text directly to Verizon by forwarding it to SCAM (7726) or report it as junk or spam in the messaging app you use.
