NFT: Getting Text Messages from Uber

Samiam : 3/26/2020 10:02 am
In the last few days I've gotten texts from Uber with a code. Theres a phone number i don’t recognize and it tells me to Stop to unsubscribe. Im over 70 and not going outside at all. I do have an uber acct with 2 step verification. Does this mean someone has hacked into my uber account? Or, is it phishing? I checked the acct and no trips since last year and no charges to the credit card. Looked all over uber web site and cannot find a way to contact them. Is there anything to worry about or to do?

my mother got this the other day. Do not respond just delete the texts when they come in... ridiculous in this world right not to have the scammers in full swing. I suppose they got nothing better to do.
Yep,

it's happened to me and a bunch of my friends as well. Just block it and ignore it. I remember I changed my Uber password like a million times thinking someone was trying to access my account. Turns out it's just people trying to scam.
Must be Scam

Just got a text that I won a prize because of a recent purchase with a link i should click on.

I wonder how many people, especially seniors, fall for this. Thank you for helping me.
