Sophisticated scam targeting Verizon Wireless customers

From Network World:

Sophisticated scam targeting Verizon Wireless customers

"The Better Business Bureau recently warned of a scam targeting Verizon Wireless customers that tries to trick users into giving up personal information.

According to the BBB, the scam begins when a customer gets a call that appears to come from "Technical Support" and claims to be Verizon Wireless. It is a recorded message saying you are eligible to receive a voucher for your account. You need to visit a website to claim it. The web address given contains "Verizon" and the value of the voucher. One recent version of the scam used "verizon54.com," but watch for variations, the BBB stated."
