They say people are receiving a text stating they overpaid on their latest bill and will be getting a refund if they download the link below the text message. SaskTel said they would not issue a refund in this way and encourage people to report it to their phishing scam department.

Scams like these circulate every so often; in all cases, officials urge residents not to share any personal information over the phone. They say to contact the business or organization directly and inquire about the situation, and if it is in fact a scam, report it.
