Need your help guys.

Received a telephone call not long ago which when answered went dead.

Subsequently, i received 13 text messages from the same number with no text message attached.

One of the guys in my work said there was /is a scam going whereby you inadvertently subscribe to that number and the cost of the text messages would be met by me.

Anyone know of this and if so what can be done about it?

All help as you can imagine , very much appreciated.

Alan

Call your service provider to check your bill. From my understanding you whould have to make the call to subscribe, but things change.
