Your first stop for reporting a text message scam should be the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC specializes in any crimes related to communications, including messages sent to cell phones.
To report a text message scam to the FCC, go to the FCC website.

Go on Verizon and search BLOCK CALLS. Verizon allows you to block up to 5 telephone numbers free.

It's a major scam when I never even entered a Best Buy contest. Their email address is NOT Bestbuycontest.com. I hope no one falls for this!
| John Doe 2012-11-03 18:34:32 Unknown |
Has anyone gone to the website and done anything for this? I didn't even think about it and went to the site. I entered some info and now I am wondering what is gonna happen.
| Diann Wilson 2012-11-03 17:41:33 Unknown |
Do not have messaging contract, so this costs me money each time they send this scam! It says I've won $1000 Best Buy gift card.
HOW DO I BLOCK THIS NUMBER..(VERIZON)
It's not the first time I've gotten this type text.

Text from BestBuy.com $1000 gift card offer leads to credit card application offers. Scam.
| anonymous 2012-11-02 19:19:27 Unknown |
This is a version of the gift-card-offer scam http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/nothing/bestbuy.asp
| JJ 2012-11-02 16:45:57 SMS |
Was texted from this number the following:
"Your entry last month has WON! Go to BestBuyContest.com and enter your winning code 0000 to claim you FREE $1,000 BestBuy gift card within 24 hours."
Total SCAM!

I assume your phone number is between (000) 000-0000 and (999) 999-9999. A computer & voip can call millions of numbers a day. If someone picks up, the number is tagged as "live". The only thing criminals like as much as money, is something worth money. That would be your "live" phone number, which can be sold to other scammers. It has nothing to do with the "Do not call" list, which criminals don't follow anyway.

I am also on No Call List, but this little gem woke me up @ 4 a.m. Same MO as the rest - where do they get these numbers? ARGHHHH!

I recd a text from 909 973 7076, saying I'd won a contest and get a 1000.00 gift card from best buy. Directed me to a website and gave a code to enter. I didn't respond. I am on the do not call list.
| Kay 2012-10-30 19:13:38 Unknown |
Just got a text....same as everyone above. Never entered a sweepstakes....sounds like computer hackers to me!
| Becky 2012-10-29 13:58:35 Unknown |
My text message came at 5:22AM. Thought it might be about one of my elderly parents, which is the only reason my phone was on. My winning code #was 6207. I'd say these people are disgusting, but they don't care. Thank goodness for sites like this one.
| Wally 2012-10-28 16:01:49 Unknown |
Same message with code 6207, but different address of bestbuycontest.com. Thank goodness for this website and it's posts because I often shop at Best Buy. Now I know this message is not legit
| sue 2012-10-25 19:15:12 SMS |
I texted back...don't text this number again...yeah...like that will help...
| CJ 2012-10-25 15:08:20 SMS |

I got a text from this number telling me my entry last month in a BestBuy contest WON and I should go to BestBuyContest.com and enter code 7362 to win my free $1000 BestBuy gift card. Nevermind that I haven't bought anything from BestBuy in at least 6 months. This is obviously as scam.
| Miranda Cleek 2012-10-21 21:21:42 Unknown |
I got the same message
| Donna 2012-10-21 17:45:30 Unknown |

| Jay 2012-10-21 15:38:49 Unknown |

Just got the same text and i shopped @ best buy for the first time in many years, I gave them my ph# sounds like best buy is selling us out!
| Amy in NC 2012-10-19 10:21:06 SMS |
I also received a text at "2:30 am" saying I won $1000 from Best Buy. Go to bestbuyraffle.com and enter 6**7. I have recently shopped at Best Buy AND entered the "$5,000" shopping spree, so at 2:30 am, I'm like....what the? Anyway...googled the 9099737076 number it came from & here I am! Ticks me off since I have to pay "per" text!
