Viking State Bank says text message is a scam

Posted: Fri, Apr 1, 2016 9:41 AM

Staffers at Viking State Bank in Decorah have learned about a text message that has been sent out to a large group of people saying it is from the "Viking State Bank Security Department."

The message asks people to click on a link.  People who do that will be taken to a page asking for pin numbers and account numbers.

Viking Bank staffers say the text message is a scam.  They're warning people Do NOT click on the link, but delete the message.

Viking State Bank NEVER sends out notifications via text message, staffers say.
