Invaded

As I sat at my desk today at work a text message came through to my phone from a phone number that I didn’t recognize. The message read, “Send txt message to landline phones with Text to Landline. Personalize your msg with new Record ur Name feature. Try it today. Call 781-577-6885. Std. rates apply.”

Ok, I’m thinking who is this company? How did they get my number? Why are they texting me? I put my cell phone number on the do not call registry, is there a registry for do not text message me? Why is this company sending me a random text about a service that I am not interested in? I’m just wondering is the new era of marketing, forcefully sending text messages to people’s cell phones about services that are no value to the consumer. I’m wondering if more text messages are to follow….Have you gotten any random marketing texts?
