Pelican State Credit Union

I opened a checking and savings account with them in late November. Last week I got a text that was obviously not from the credit union and was a phishing attempt saying that my debit card was locked for suspicious activity and I must click the link to unlock my debit card.

I brought it to the attention of the credit union and they told me it was a scam and to ignore it which worries me.

With Pelican State Credit Union being a Louisiana entity and not national, how would anyone know that I have an account with them to even send that text to my phone. I asked them if their had been any hacks into their systems and was told no. I am not sure I believe that. I don't know how else to explain it.
