Boof Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I occasionally get texts from "Person whose name could conceivably be in my contacts" with nothing more than 'Hi David, here's the info I was telling you about' then some link to somewhere. I've never actually checked where the link goes to and there's never any reply number that I can block but all I'm wondering is...is there some way I can globally block this shite from reaching my phone? Edit: Vodafone website advises Forward the spam text message to 7726, our free reporting service which helps us to monitor and reduce spam. I'll be giving that a go if I remember the number...

AlphonseCapone Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Actually got a spam text today offering me the chance to earn 2000 working at home for only 30 minutes. Only had to click a link. Was able to blacklist it on my phone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
