Just now - ? Scam on prescription delivery ?

[Em in Ohio]

Just got a text, supposedly from Walmart, about changing the delivery method for my prescription. I do get my medication there, but don't recognize the url... Anyone else getting these texts offering mail delivery?

In this particular case, if there are any doubts about a message you receive, you might want to contact your pharmacy directly, to verify the info in the text.
There is an increase in scams, as this virus lingers....everything from bogus "go fund me" sites, to an expected increase of "donation" scams as these government stimulus payments begin to be sent.
A person should Always verify the validity of any texts/e-mails they receive before responding....and the need to do so will be increasing.

If it was me, I would delete it..Probably looking for more business for their mail delivery..

Thanks, Don & Ken - I will definitely not respond to the text. I will call the Walmart Pharmacy tomorrow and see if they know anything about this - and then, definitely delete it if bogus.

My daughter is a pharmacist at CVS here in Houston and they started delivery this week. Mainly for the elderly who cannot get out.
