Can I find out the source.  I have never had this happen and also legal proceedings commencing and all this happens?>??

Guys its all legit and its not a con, you are not charged for these texts unless you text 'YES' back to them.

This number robbed me of 5 pounds from my 3 sim. BEWARE. I with my brother never sold me the sim. 5 pounds down the pan.

Said I did surveys, yes OK, just text 'yes' to this number, and answer survey questions.  Did this, a racket, they tried today 15th March, third attempt,  could not send me numbers as I did not have enough credit, shock!  Giggle, so pleased shall attempt to remove the number - answer yes they charge you for the call

recieved text for free lottery entries

Do we have the Name, Address, Telephone Number and Email Address for the Organisation that is sending Texts to people under the Text Number 87770?

Anyone who clains it's from a Facebook survey is in on the scam and should be treated as the scum they are.  I just got texts from 87770, but I have not filled out any surveys on Facebook ever.

text ' stop ' but it costs 10p !

i got a text from 87770 but i did not want it or set it up

Were you charged? I've had 2 this morning already! :s

I clicked on a link saying I could win Michael McIntyre tickets n it asked me loads of questions I said I would like a free lottery ticket n I've had 2 texts already this morning, does that mean I'll be charged for them?

Unwanted junk text offering lines in a lottery draw.

so sick of getting these texts, DONT text back to opt out they charge you. Also I have had other calls etc saying it's a facebook survey which i dont do. 3 as a provider are renouned for selling mobile phone numbers. I suppose that's what you get with the call centre in india

I don't think the people saying they filled in a fb survey are "in on the scam", some of them sound just as annoyed as everyone else is! There are all sorts of ways people like this can find out your mobile number, facebook apps are just one of them. I got this by stupidly agreeing to answer a "market research" survey on the phone (normally I don't agree to these things but he caught me off guard!). They did ask me if I wanted to be entered into something to get 5 free entries to the Lottery & I said I wasn't sure. I asked if they could give me more details about it as I didn't want to just agree to something without being sure what it was and he said I'd be sent further details, by which I now assume he meant I would be sent a text about it!

[***] [***]!!!!!!  Some people ard genuinely gullible and click on those links on FB, which leads them to get the texts.... they come here for help not your insidious response!
