T-Mobile rewards points expiry texts are a phishing scam
Brief
Since early May 2026, we’ve been monitoring a large phishing campaign based on T-Mobile rewards points.
The messages falsely warn that a customer’s rewards points are about to expire. They aren’t legitimate account notices: They use urgency, invented point balances, and phishing links to push recipients into acting before they can verify the claim.
A typical message says that a T-Mobile Rewards account holds 18,400 points, gives an imminent expiry date, and states that unused points will be removed under the program’s terms. These details make the message look as though it was written specifically for the recipient, even though it was sent to many people.
“T-Mobile Rewards Points Reminder: Your Points Are About to Expire
Dear Customer,
We are hereby reminding you that your T-Mobile Rewards account points are about to expire.
