Well don't this take the cake. Grrr!

True, spam is spam, spam email is annoying too, but, at the end of the day at least I don't pay a "per email" cost for my internet so it's somewhat less intrusive than this phone spam.

If this is going to become a bigger problem as time goes on then they need to almost institute some kind of collect call mechanism for text messages. "You have received a message from <blah blah blah>; do you accept?" Then at least I have SOME say in the matter. I don't know, maybe that wouldn't work either.

One of my coworkers got the same spam on his phone yesterday too, so, I wonder if this is not an isolated incident. I haven't had a chance to call telus yet ... hmmm I should go do that right now actually ..
