    OH i got a text "like" this today, telling me to ring a mobile number to get a free pychic reading. So i rang (using my free mins of course) and said what does the future hold for my socks. She hung up, the B*tch hung up!
  • This scam is so ridiculous. If she calls back, tell her to get a real job!
  • My partner recieved a message on his phone and showed me instantly. it was from
    07786409560

    the message said

    'Im a top heavy blonde, im ready for some fun call me on this number02032858173 im ready anytime Zoe =-)'

    this is some sort of scam and i was not happy with it, hopefully it gets sorted soon before someone does ring.

    The texts quoted seem pretty obvious to me. What were you expecting when you called?!

    Is that question directed at me?

    . . ., I gave her my postcode. Got a bill today for £35.50 for a 10 second call. What should I do? Contact ofcom or phone telebilling, or ignore it?

    Must have given more than your postcode in order for them to get a bill to you. Do they have your name as well. And the number of your house/flat?
