201-423-2593 stating it's an opportunity to BETA test the ipad3 by simply going to http://ipad3.mobi and entering the word 'BETA'. Needless to say I knew it was a scam as soon as I read the text message and wanted to make sure others were aware it's only a scam too.
My daughter was just texted from this number 201-423-3310 and asked to test the iphone5. Thanks for having this info available so that she can see you shouldnt respond to mess like this in the future.
text from 1(201)912-9179: Apple is looking for people to Test & Keep the New iPad3! But only the 1st 1000 users that goto http://ipad3winner.co and enter code BETA will Receive it!
I received the same text message earlier today from 201-918-0587. Apparently the number is from NJ and a Cingular Wireless phone? I've never received texts or calls on my cell before so I have no idea how they got my number and I'm on the do not call list. Which I know is pretty useless because my house phone is always ringing with obnoxious telemarketers and crap that won't take my number off their list no matter how many times I've asked. I've filed dozens of complaints and all for nothing :/
