Stay Alert: Protecting Our Customers from Fraudulent Communications<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Bird, our commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of our customers is paramount. We’ve been made aware of instances where individuals have received unsolicited texts and WhatsApp messages from scammers impersonating Bird. We wish to clarify that these communications do not originate from us and underscore the importance of remaining vigilant to safeguard against potential scams.<\/p>\n

These communications might include bogus offers, phishing attempts to collect personal information, or other deceptive practices. The aim of these scammers is to exploit unsuspecting members of the public, potentially leading to financial loss or identity theft.<\/p>\n
