Hi Everyone

Well yesterday, I received a text message from 80006 which says Error. Message cancelled.

Has anyone else receive any text messages from this number and did you get charged for it, if so how much and did you get it stopped.


Many Thanks

    There is a previous post about receiving unsolicited reverse bill texts from 80006, the company details are below. Check to see that you have not been charged £1.50 for this sms. Contact the company or you may continue to be scammed.
