got a call from 877-830-5279  - about a gift card, did not call, but said to text stop to unsubscribe, definately a scam, i texted stop and then realized that i probably shouldnt have done that

I did the same thing, replied stop to unsubscribe, but i bet there will be a charge on my bill for doing that, dont know.  I have verizon, anyone out there have verizon, or is this happening to all carriers.

The text was from (856) 316-9003
telling me to call (877) 830-5279
for my free $100 gift card - same message as above.
I replied with 'STOP' however that probably only confirms I'm real and the number is good.

My husband also got this message on his phone.  The number that sent this message was a 912-332-xxxx phone number.  The message had the same info in is as everyone else who posted on here.  My husband has a smart phone and I do not (I didn't receive a message like this)...so I'm wondering if that plays a part as well.

Thanks for the posts, everyone!  Makes me feel better

Got a txt message i won a $100 gift card. So i called the 877# she said i won a $100 gift card to either walmart or target, and $20 gas card. BUT she also wanted my credit card # and charge $4.99 for processing fee. Can you say SCAM!
