An ideas on how to stop spam texts?

SareBear30 · July 2011

I keep getting this text:

"Need cash now? Receive $100 - $1500 direct to YOUR bank in 1 hr! No credit check. Get instant approval at www.VIPatmsite.com (optout,reply:stop)"

I reply stop, but they keep coming. Any ideas on what to do? So irritating!

see if you can block that text number through your cell phone provider?

I get it from different numbers. I've gotten it twice in the past two days with totally different numbers.

Thanks! You girls know everything!

Unfortunately, I can't ban texts from computers, as my work sends text notification for things that way. But I'm filling out the FCC form right now!

If you have AT&T, forward the message to 7726.
