Robinhood 'Security Risk' Account Anomoly Detection Scam

Text claims to be from “Robinhood Securities Official Security Team” warning that unusual activity was found on your account. It pushes you to click a link that looks like Robinhood but actually goes to a strange website. The message also urges you to reply “Y” if the link isn’t clickable. This is a classic smishing attempt to steal your login and 2FA codes. What to do: Ignore the text, don’t click the link or reply. If worried, open the official Robinhood app or type robinhood.com yourself to check your account.

What’s different in this version

These traits set this message apart from the usual pattern.

Uses urgent wording like “Immediate Action” to rush you
Fake sender identity “Robinhood Securities Official Security Team”
Phony login link with a look‑alike domain www-robinhood.rrnppbp.top/Verify
Encourages replying “Y,” which confirms your number is active
Sent from an unfamiliar international number code

How this scam works

1
Step 1: You get an alarming text, email, or call saying a withdrawal/transfer is in progress.
2
Step 2: The message includes a link or phone number and urges you to act immediately to cancel.
3
Step 3: If you click, you land on a look‑alike website that steals your login and one‑time codes.
4
Step 4: If you call, a fake “fraud specialist” asks for your codes, pushes you to move money to a “safe” account, or requests remote access.
5
Step 5: With your access, scammers move your money, change account settings, and lock you out.

✓ Do this

Check your account by opening the official app or typing the company’s website yourself.
Call the number on the back of your card or from the official website, not the number in the alert.
Set up transaction alerts and two‑factor authentication (2FA) in the official app.
If you clicked or shared info, change your password, remove unrecognized devices, and contact your bank’s fraud team immediately.
Report the message to your bank/app and forward phishing emails to their abuse address if available.

✗ Avoid this

Do not click links or call numbers in unexpected withdrawal alerts.
Do not share one‑time codes, PINs, or recovery phrases with anyone—even a supposed bank employee.
Do not move money to a “holding,” “safe,” or “verification” account—this is a common scam tactic.
Do not install remote access software or grant screen‑sharing to someone who contacted you.
