I received this text from 1-409-292-2247. I called the number and a recording said that I had reached a Text Free real phone number.

"Haha if u want to know who this is u got to addd me on Y! msger. my id is textgirl46"

They used my first name.

I got a call from this number & they sai d:  hello u there? haven't heard from u in a while. lol if u wanna know who this is you gotta addd me on yahoo msnger, my name is txtiegirly87. hey my cell is about to die, just talk to me on Y! ;-)  .

This person said my name in the text.

Same exact thing happened to me.

I got the same message as nrp today... but came from a 313-718-2085 and had the 951-356-1719 number as a added number to the message.

i also got the same message.  they knew my name, asked me if i was there, and told me they havent heard from me in a while.  i thought it was a old friend of mine, so i asked if it was ******* and they responded with "haha if you want to know who this is you have to add me on yahoo messanger. my id is textgirl46"

anyone else have them know your name???

Yes I get sneaky texts too.  Pretending to be a friend - They ask me to add them to y msngr and they will tell me who they are.
