The U.S. Army is warning about a wave of fake text messages telling Americans they are being drafted to fight in Iran.
One key indicator that the texts are fake is that there are spelling and grammar errors.
The other is that the draft was suspended back in the 70s, and only Congress has the power to bring it back.
The selective service website crashed last week, and the agency says that attributed to the spread of misinformation.
It’s unclear how many texts may have been sent.
