Got a text message earlier on tonight...
The number looks a bit "dubious" - like a company number (the pattern of it). I'm wonder if its the latest scam for you to text back and pay £1.50 a text or something ludicrous.Quote:
Can i ask a favor? Who own's this mobile?
Whats the number?
EX
Not giving that out just incase it is one of my mates... :p ;)
Google isnt showing anything, so if it is a scam, its new.
Ill ring it tomrrow if i dont find out by then.
make sure u ring them from work ;)
Planning to :)
Will 141 it anyway
It could be a scam, or just someone playing a (drinking) game. As part of a drinking game we played in the first year at uni we would text random numbers. The first person to get a reply would then choose the person to do a punishment drink, normally a few fingers. So there was a real incentive to make the text messages something that people would reply to. Personally I was not so keen on the game because I did not at that point have free text messages. Also sometimes people would be getting replies quickly thus making us drink a lot (good) or no one would get replies and thus the game did not go anywhere (rubbish). ;)
[Said really quickly in American accent]By drinking games I was referring to non alcoholic substances such as water. I would never condone alcohol abuse or binge drinking.[/Said really quickly in American accent] :eek:

well whats the first 5 digits? (so you can tell what network it is/and/or location of phone...)
Area code kinda thing...
Not always now Twigman, some people port their numbers across networks.
yeah ok thats true. Might be worth a try anyway.
I assume it was a UK number?
