I rec’d the EBT scam number text on my phone Friday Feb 11, 2022 @ 4:58pm. I was going to call my local office Monday instead of responding but decided to google it first. Glad I did. However, I figured something wasn’t right. Normally, a letter is sent. When does Snap ever text? Becareful out there…a lot of scammers.

Do not disregard

ebt78558207@fws.gov

Retired from California. Living in Italy. Text came on my US phone. Scared the bejeezus out of me until I googled "fws" (US Fish and Wildlife Service?)(WTF?)

I also googled "ebt". That's for sending foodstamp benefits. I'm trying to imagine being on foodstamps and getting a text and seeing the "gov" part and not having an internet service provider to be able to Google "fws". As if they don't have enough stress in their lives.

I hope these scammer guys die painful deaths.

Now I gotta go ask my husband if he's ever seen a wildlife. We like to eat fish.
