Got a call from 980-253-8552 on Tuesday, May 18, 2010 at 11:33am.
It said "You have been preselected to receive a $100 Target Gift Card! Please call 866-445-2808 to claim."
I called the 980-253-8552 number - it does not go anywhere.
I then called the 866-445-2808 number. A woman with a Caribbean accent answered. Her name was Jessie Lopez. She said the works for Protection Junction, a fraud protection company (yeah right). I asked her to remove my number from their spam list. She said she'd take care of it and if I ever received another call or SMS from them, to call their customer service at 800-795-7998.

I got that same text about Target May 18 2010 at 2:35 pm. I plan to do nothing about it unless I get another text. It also said to reply "stop" back to end it... but I feel like that might make them send me more. We will see. :(
