I'm using Rogers and for the past month or so I've been getting two text messages EVERY morning at around 8:30 am.

It's advertising Yahoo Weather or something and includes a horoscope too. I deleted them but I'll add more detail tmw morning when I get it again.

Anyone else receive these msgs and is there any way to block them? They are fucking annoying me.

Call Rogers and tell them about it, usually you are not the only one and they will tell you what website to go to to take your number off of the mailing list.

Good question. I don't recall seeing one but I'll check tomorrow when I get it again. My guess is probably some random number but I'll have to wait and see.

I keep getting these spam messages that say I think you are cute or whatever. Goto this website. I am with Telus.

They also spam with ring tone ads. Fuck them.
