Hi there received a text from BOI notifying me of unusual activity on my account.

The text said to avoid a block being placed I need to log on to https://365digital-alertservice.com.

I've never had to that before it that a genuine text or is it a scam?

That looks like a scam to me, I have received similar ones myself. Do nothing til you hear from Bank of Ireland here.

100% scam. It's not Bank of Ireland, scammers can make it appear as though the message has been sent by BoI. If you've done nothing, then you're fine, delete the text and move on. If you've clicked the link or entered any details you should get on to bank of Ireland immediately.

Scam. If you’re concerned, ring BOI from phone number on your account.

Hi KBurke85,

Thanks for getting in touch with us here on Boards.ie.

This would be a fraudulent message. Please delete the message and do not follow any links or reply. Bank of Ireland will never contact you asking for any of your account, or online banking information.

Thanks, Aisling

NEVER EVER click a link in a random text message from a bank. It WILL be a scam.
