Annoying sms! #$*&@!!!

I don’t mind getting text messages from my Service Provider when there’s any announcement on promotion, updates, etc.

I also don’t mind receiving sms from the Melium Group, Esprit, SKII or Mac when they want to announce sales or news on promotional activities/items.

I find it great too when Citibank sends me an sms each month reminding me of my credit card bill due date, the amount to pay, etc

BUT…

I do find it VERY ANNOYING when I get these type of sms and I’m not even sure who sends them.

FOC: Hot MAN Zone! Get pretty GIRLS in ur Hphone now! Sms to 33377 for animation or for wallpaper. Send now!

This is another one:
Suasana romantis…sentuhan ringan sehingga keinginan yang tertahan muncul jua. Sms ON SX ke 33168. Untuk dewasa sahaja

Oh come on…!! Does anyone actually reply to these sms?

And why do they have to send it at random? Buang masa I je baca the sms..!! #$@&!!

Those are annoying marketing habits which I think are getting out of hand.

I am sure some horny guy will reply to those messages ... especially if he can get pretty girls on his handphone. :)

Hi Trueblue,

I have received all the smses you mentioned above, the commercial ones, but the ones in blue (no pun intended) I belum terima pulak. Memang lah they did it at random or perhaps via some individuals who could tap into some database kot.
