SMS Spamming


Are you getting irritating unwanted SMS spam messages that you did not ask for?
Do something about it now
!
BACKGROUND
What is SMS "spam"?
Much like e-mail spam, an SMS message is considered to be spam if it was unsolicited and
was sent by a company with the intention of selling you a product or service.
What should I do once I have the details of the owner?
Use the contact information provided for the owner, and submit your complaint directly to
them.
What happens if they won't resolve the problem?
Contact WASPA by making use of the complaint form provided for such situations.
ACT NOW !
Visit http://www.smscode.co.za/ to trace the culprit and follow steps one, two and
three on the page to resolve your problem.

You can also visit http://www.waspa.org.za
( WASPA is The Wireless Application Service Providers' Association), and they act as watchdog to make sure people
don't above your cell number !
TIP
Never give your cell number and or indicate on application forms (of any kind) that you want to
receive info / specials / promotions and so forth via SMS. That is often ( not always ) where spam SMS messages
originate from.
