    Got a few texts from this number recently +35360642048, asking me to call them. Then they explain how to return a call:rolleyes:

    I assume scam and have ignored. Anyone else get this text or recognise the number (not on google yet, though I have reported it )

    It sounds like one of those messages mobile companies allow users to send when they are out credit, but don't recognise that as a mobile number

    I'd say you got a missed call from that number and your network is sending that text, I know vodafone and Meteor offer that service

    Ring the number back from a pay phone and find out.
