Scam Description

I received a phishing text. Verizon is AWFUL about scams via text or phone calls; I swear they’re selling my phone number themselves. Anyway, this was a lottery phishing scam you’re probably familiar with. It came from the number I entered in the form. They texted my number, and the two numbers ‘before’ mine (mine ends in 0300, and they also texted (as a group!) 0298, and 0299). Text of the message is in the screenshot. I did not respond to the message or click any of the links, so no real chance for them to try and get my info or money
