I got the same text "Need some quick cash? You can easily get $1200 wired into your bank account today! For info, just reply back the word "PAY". (To cancel: reply STOP.)
Got the same message as others (Need some quick cash? You can easily get $1200 wired to your bank account ...). It arrived on 1/25 at 21:11 (ET). None since then. I did not reply with STOP (since I have to pay for that and it may encourage this person to continue).
