Hello Mike Powell!

And.. some messages might arrive "seemingly" from one's bank or  
other service company.. and those links could even be short  
URLs. ...that's also suspicious and a no-no.

I guess there are plenty of people/victims out there who simply  
never hear about the danger of short urls and whether a legit  
service company even sends out sms notices or not.
