I too received a text from the above number saying hi with a Smiley face. When asked who it was they replied to go yahoo messenger and we would catch up. I replied I would report them ,they replied back that they must have a bad signal .
I got a text and then told me to go to yahoo messenger and gave me elstonlkn681. They would not give me there name and I didn't know anyone in Florida. Told them that I was going to report this. Not happy they got my phone number
Got one, first said, "Hi, D," which is my first initial. If they'd known me, though, I'm sure they would have used my name. I sometimes sign up for commercial things like newsletters/feeds on the internet using just my first initial as a signal to me that, if I get a response, it is probably an ad or something that I can ignore, so I suspect this is someone who got my number from one of those sources.
Did get a response to my query as to who this was, to the first text, saying, "Look for me on Yahoo Messenger so we can catch up. I.D. on there is gasparoksh848." I asked again who this was and got, "Grrr, is terrible :(."
Figured by then I didn't know the sender, so did not reply further, but kept the texts to look up later to see if I could find out who it was. Google search found 4 reports that this is a spammer number. So I'm blocking it and erasing the texts and number, though am labeling the number as well, as I do with all these kinds of numbers, so that caller ID will come up as SPAM on the screen. Makes it easer to ignore and erase any future calls, though the directory gets a little full doing this.
