Phone Port out scam? Is this a problem in Canada?

Yes other carriers do this as well but people assume it is a spam message because it actually does look like one.

So, how fast do you have to call in, or hit up the chatbot in PM's case, to prevent it? Is it like minutes, or what?

I really don't know the answer to that. Like it was said above the porting is almost instant.

it is quick, but it is also reversible.

Not sure if mentioned before but carriers provide 'port protection' that's supposed to be free. So a good idea to have that put on...our office manager mentioned that and I plan to give them a call tomorrow to get it done.
