Health officials are warning Albertans about a text message scam making its way across the province.
Alberta Health Services says a scam using the organization’s name includes a message that states AHS is sending people funds.
It includes a link, and anyone that opens it will be redirected to a website that looks like an Interact E-Transfer page that asks for personal and banking information.
AHS says it never sends text messages like this and it does not send money owed to Albertans.
