got very explicit texts at 4:30 and 5 in the morning. I did reply asking who it was thinking someone I knew might be messing w/ me. Looks like a scam. How did they get my #??
recieved a text in the middle of the night and another early in the morning... suggestiive in nature. My wife called and texted back that she ws not in to chicks and happily married since the text was signed "Kayla-O"
For a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
For text messages: forwarding any text message spam you get to the short code “7726,” which spells “spam” on most phones, to alert your network operator to the abuse. ATT won't accept 7726 But they will accept BLOCK and return a message that the web site is blocked. forward the texts to 7726 or BLOCK, depending on your phone carrier.

Report your callers here, not just to the DNC alone:
I received a text at 8:58 PM 5/25/2015 From this number. It said " I know Milk does a body goood, but baby, how much have you been drinking?. Text back. Tammie-K" I have never received any texts or calls from any of these weird numbers or scammers until February when I was forced into getting a new phone. I went from having a Nokia Lumia 822 to an LG Cosmos (2?) and since then I've gotten call after call after call and text after text after text from offers, scammers, and suggestive "bots" . And because I have this crappy phone I don't know how to block numbers. I highlighted the number and went under options but there was no option to block.
