verify your Verizon account

[mhwlms1959]

Just got a text telling me to verify my account. URL was myverizon.patriot. net... Sounds like a scam

Verizon should never verify your account unless you called Verizon.

It is.  You can forward to phishing@verizonwireless.com and they can take action (hopefully).

You can forward the text to SPAM (7726) also.

When in doubt, just log on to verizonwireless.com and if all seems well, it's a scam.  Anything other than verioznwireless.com is suspect, and if you can log in to your account normally there, you don't have to verify with another URL.
