Hi again people,
I know someone who is getting 18 text messages at about 1am with the following:
application/x-wap-prov.browser-settings

from the number 2107000

They are not beign charged for these texts so his service provider cannot track these texts because they are not showing in his call history, we have also tried contacting the phone manufac. and ofcom but all unable to help, any idea where it may of come from, i have used google and found loads of info but all saying that its a type off OTAP for the web broswer but not anyway to stop it or find out with provider its ocming from?!

Thanks in advance

Will

Try HERE and put the number in, then click on the box "click here to look up 21070" it does not give much info but may help.

Has your friend tried the old "STOP" text ?

Yeh, fails to send as its not a valid number, thats another thing that leads me to believe that its a system generated text as oppose to s short code messege service
