I got the same text message, I don't want to text anything back in case it will send information to them...

I received a text message from 415-283-6127:
"Thx 4 Visiting Our Site Call 877-603-5280 To Claim Your $20 Wal-Mart Card Plus $50 Gas Card! Reply STOP 2Unsub or Call 415-513-5459 2 Unsub Now"

Sounds very fishy, so I'll ignore it.  Except it's the third such message I've received in the last 2 days.  The others were from different numbers, but similar in concept.  This will get old quickly if it keeps happening.

Just got the same text.  Decided to call the 877 number for S&Gs.

I quizzed the person who answered, "Nancy", and got the following info.  Turns out the company's name is Everyday Shopper out of Phoenix, AZ.  To get your "free" cards, you have to pay a shipping and handling fee "to my company", as "Nancy" repeatedly stated, of $2.00.  They only accept Visa and Mastercard.

When "Nancy" asked me how I wanted to pay her company, by Visa or Mastercard, I told her I really didn't want to pay her company, but I'd gladly accept the shipment for free.

Question for the day... Whatever happened to dial tones?  All I get is silence when people hang up nowadays.

I received a similar message and looked the number up and turns out it's a line in San Fransisco, CA.

please stop call me.

I received two within 12 hours.  I did not text back, but opted to call from my work phone the number provided to get unsubscribed from their list.  The mail box was full.  So I then tried to call the number listed as the origination of the text, but that number does not take calls.  So I called the sales number and they answered and asked how I would be paying for the coupon.  Upon several questions they confirmed that they were Everyday Shoppers.  I asked to be removed from all voice and text messages from them, which they agreed to do without any hesitation.  I asked for their mailing address of their corporate offices so that I could make a record of this for future violations of our agreement.  They became very defensive and would not give out their address indicating that they were not authorized to do so.  I asked for a supervisor and had the same results.  While the supervisor agreed to take me off their mailing list, he was not going to give me an address of their company, saying that only customers would be given their address.  I replied that if I were not a customer, then how did they come to the conclusion that we had a prior business relationship that was implied in the text?  No, answer.  I then asked him to put himself in my shoes and asked him what he would do with a company that wanted a credit card from me but would not give me their address prior?  EVERYONE.....RUN AWAY!

I just got a text message from 415-283-6127.  The text read "Thanks 4 Visiting Our Website Please call 877-861-8581 to claim your $100 Walmart Gift Card Voucher! Reply STOP 2 Unsub or call 415-513-5459 2 Unsub Now".  I called the number.  The lady said the company was Bromacleanse.  I asked to be removed from all call/text lists.  I got the company's address (PO Box 2818 Riverton, Uhta 84065) if they call/text back.  I also go the customer service number at 877-829-3172 if they call/text back.  Sounds like a scam to me!

These people need to be put in jail.  The problem is that this phone number might not even belong to them.  I get this same spam message sent using a different number each time I get it.

If you get text spam, report it to the FCC.  Hopefully they are doing something about it.

Tell the FCC they need to do something about this!  Mobile phone text spamming It is a major problem!  Don't expect the carriers to help much because they are making lots of money off of it for people who have to pay for every spam text!
