    There are plenty of text-based scams out there.

    Yes! And do you know what I also like? The refrigerator!

    This deserves a thread on its own

    I had read something about this some time ago, and the threat of text based scams does worry me to the point where I honestly feel that this deserves a thread on its own for discussions and warning the unwary (like me)

    It seems that one of the scams involves someone texting to say they want to catch up with you, and when you call them, your call is diverted to a number which charges you for the call.

    Others include telling you that you've won something or other and when you call back, you are put on hold at enormous charge.

    That's all I can remember.
    When in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout

    To be fair, this was my first time calling them for anything - and I've had their network about three years or so - so it's good to hear somebody else say they're okay too.

    Are there a load of posts missing from this thread?
    I hope it's not had spammers on it
