NFCU Personal Loans Anyone? Weird Text

This morning, I applied for a small unsecured loan with NFCU.  Within 15 minutes, I received a text:  (Loan Application Approval)  Great news!  Your loan is approved & your documents will be mailed to you, as requested.

 

Ok, great....BUT  the text didn't specificially say it came from NFCU...just a bunch of numbers. 

 

Is this legit?  Yes, I did ask the docs be mailed and I did provide them my phone #.

 

I'm hoping I'm now on the road to getting approvals after a denial in Jan 2013.

Yes they do send you a text as I have recieved a few as well.  Just call them or login to your account to verify.  If you don't see it on your accounts page then look at your loan status (from the drop down menu) and you will see the approval there.

All of my pending NFCU apps have come through via text message from random numbers. Congrats on the approval!
