Verizon link hack
I received a text from a close contact, when I opened the text and read it, I clicked the link... It took me to a site that appeared to be Verizon- stating my account was paid, but I don't have a Verizon account and as soon as I realized what I had done- my phone screed popped up that I had been hacked. Is this legit? Has anyone else encountered this? What do I do to check or protect my phone.
I immediately turned my phone off and left it sit for a bit, and it was working fine until that pop up came back earlier today and it said my phone was hacked and I am being tracked. Any help is appreciated.
