says I won $1000 and to text them back at the following 5 digit phone number "88188" to claim my prize
I haven't contacted them back yet but thought I would post here still.
| Barb W 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
I just got it about 30 minutes ago. Companies don't text you that you've won $$
| JMW 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
Same message 5 minutes ago--wonder if there's anyway we can find out who this is and investigates. An illegal scam I'm sure
| DK 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
Just got this text message: "Dear customer, we'd like to thank you for your loyalty by giving you a free $50 credit. Please text "DAM409842" (without quotes) to the following 5-digit number 88188.". I am always suspicious when someone is giving away "free" money.

| Vancouverian 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |

| Paulo 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
Got it too. SPAM message.
| Dianne 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
I got it too! I called it back on my house phone and it said that the persons mail box was full.
| Mammagoose11 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
This number is a spam - it will collect your number once you enter the digits. NOTHING is free, least of all money...
| Trent 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
just got this msg too
| Justin S 2011-06-06 20:52:17 Unknown |
Just got the same message. Looks like spam.
| Travelbug 2011-04-17 17:20:03 Unknown |
Received this message on Thursday when i was Europe. They were offering me less though! Darn scam.
My message was "Dear customer, we'd like to thank your loyalty by giving you a free $50 credit. Please text "DM409842" (wiithout quotes) to the following 5-digit number 88188.
| Elmoelmo 2011-04-15 21:01:32 SMS |
I got this SMS in Vancouver too (Fido)
"Dear customer, we'd like to thank yor loyalty by giving you a free $50 credit. Please text "DAM409842" (without quotes) to the following 5-digit number: 88188"
I wonder who is on the other end to receive this, and will we be charged (how much?)
Is this legal?
| Nacky 2011-04-15 06:09:02 Unknown |
Also got this message, I was with fido. I think only Fido costumers got this type of mesages, I was charged also in the past and I quit with fido because it seems they work together or maybe somebody from fido team members is doing this type of scams.
| Tricked 2011-04-15 05:28:31 SMS |
Also got this message, about the $50 dollar credit...
I'm with fido (not on a plan, but on pay as you go) as well... Hope it gets resolved!
| Gorak 2011-04-15 01:13:36 Unknown |
They're just hitting phone numbers, sequentially. 555-5555, then 555-5556, 555-5557, etc....
| light 2011-04-15 01:13:08 SMS |
I received this message 30 minutes ago. I called Fido right away. I let the customer service rep know I Googled this number and found out it's a scam. I told them that I don't want to get charged for it. Although they are not able to stop the charges they were able to help me by leaving a note in my file stating that I received a text from 604-355-9797 on such a date and time offering me $50 credit, which is a possible scam, and if I get charged for this text the amount will be credited back to my Fido account. All I have to do is call Fido if I see the charges on my bill and they will credit the amount back. I was also informed not to reply to this text, but if this continues I will keep calling Fido until it's resolved and make sure I get all the unwanted charges back to my Fido account (if they want to keep their customer of many years) Hope that helps anyone else :)

Is everyone who received it a Rogers or Fido customer? How did they get our numbers?
| meow 2011-04-15 00:55:02 SMS |
Did anyone else recieve this text after making a fido coin thingy..?
Cuz I sure did.
Dun dun dunn.. *unsuscribe fido newsletter*
| illsw 2011-04-15 00:15:02 SMS |
I just got this message and seems like I am the only one using Bell but I transferred my number from Fido about a year ago though.
