Cellphone Advertising

**TwilightPrincess** · 06-18-2007, 01:58 PM

GAWD! At 2:30 this morning, someone out there decides that my car needs to be washed. So they send me this spam advertisment for a place that doesn't even exist. But wait! It gets better! I don't even have a car.

Another one at 5:52. "Get laid TONIGHT! Dial X-XXX-XXX-XXXX". Now that one was a shocker.

But here's the shocker.

Yesterday, at 1:00AM. My gMail Mobile app starts a complicated series of chimes. "You have (1) New Message". So naturally I open the message, expecting to see some funny joke my friend sent me. But not this time. In my tiny cellphone display screen, there was this hot pic of some japanese girl I don't even know.

I never give out my cellphone number to ANYONE except my family. Any recommendations as to how I could stop this? (besides get rid of the phone.)

Cheers,
Daniel
