Stop Spam Texts But Don't Have A Number

[PW77]

Hi,

For some reason I have recently started receiving spam text messages from LEOSLOTS, it seems to be attached to the Leovegas website.

Now, I have never signed up to either the website or asked for the text messages to be sent. I have tried to block the number but there doesn't seem to be a number attached to add to my blocked senders list or forward on to the SPAM (7726) service at O2.

I have done a search and other people who text STOP to the number provided are charged 10p but still recieve the texts.

Can someone helpe please?

Cheers,

Peter

Open the text message and use the options menu and select details. You should see the 5 digit short code from which the texts are sent.

We seem to be getting a lot more of these scams lately. Time of year?

Without a doubt. In the same way more people are having calls from so called trusted partners...
