I did indeed get a text from them/similar (who knows how many are in their network or where - and blocking would be useless I suspect - would just spoof numbers. My message last April 1 (amusing April Fool's Day) (ignored it - just located due to problems w/phone) was from 305-389-3111 and read: [Hello. You have "1" fully paid item pending. You did not update transport preferences. See shipping instructions:] followed by the link [pleasegetyouritems.com/qpggymq]

Figures THAT text would stick when so many were lost....

I'm not familiar w/your site but you seem to check out ok.... perhaps there were other replies which don't show up here - (I found you by running a check on the number). Enough replies w/specifics and you could forward it to the FBI - they, sadly (as it would overburden any group) likely can't follow up on any of this - perhaps if enough people were scammed of significant money and it crossed off certain boxes. Perhaps they should send out alert notices once a month Not to open links in texts from unknown sources - one would think everyone knows this, but.... ummm.... comment would seem unkind. Good luck your site.
