Report to AT&T

• Phishing emails using the AT&T name
• Scam and spam texts to an AT&T number
• Fake AT&T websites and billing notices
• Fraud on an AT&T mobile account

1. 1

   Forward a phishing email to abuse@att.net

   AT&T asks customers to forward suspicious email there. It also suggests sending a copy to the Anti-Phishing Working Group at reportphishing@apwg.org.

2. 2

   Forward a scam text to 7726

   7726 spells SPAM on a keypad. Messages forwarded to it are free for AT&T customers, and it is how the carrier records and blocks the sender.

3. 3

   Email the whole message if the number is hidden

   When you cannot see the sending number, AT&T asks you to email the entire message to abuse@att.net instead. That keeps the parts 7726 would have needed.

4. 4

   Report account fraud to the AT&T fraud team

   If the AT&T mobile account itself is the target rather than just your inbox, report it to the fraud team through AT&T support. Forwarding a message is not enough for that.

• The sending number or email address, where it is visible
• The message itself, forwarded rather than retyped
• Your account number, for account fraud

Neither abuse@att.net nor 7726 replies. Both feed blocking and evidence rather than opening a case. Money already sent is a matter for your bank, and AT&T also points customers to the FTC.
