What to do when a underaged girl keeps msging?

[Andar]

and how can they reach my money without access to my account? I have it so I pay a set amount of money to my phone company only, so they can't take any money off my phone. (And even then the phone usually alarms if you are about to send an sms that costs money).

They cannot access your money, they need to make you send them an SMS with costs added (like the ones your phone wanrs you about, only that not every phone warns if there is a SMS to a pay-number).

Yay, I hope that does the work for you.

If it is a scammer, they'd probably try to put the sum into the phone bill, when there is billing next time. At least that way all SMS services, I know of, work.

Don't send messages to the scamming numbers or you play right into what scammers want you to do. Basically they win at the moment you do that.

It's not really like I WANT to send messages to scammers right, and let them win. If I had the mind-set that every person that ever contacted me was a scammer, I wouldn't have many friends would I? Just putting that out.

Yeah, but since I have a fixed amount, monthly payment for my phone bill and allowed sms payments disabled it shouldn't be possible to charge me without the phone alerting me that the message will cost money.

I have done payments with my phone before (charity etc), and it always tells me that the sms will cost me.

Yay, I hope that does the work for you.

Hope so too, the phone just lets me see that a message has been blocked and that's it.

Yeah, but I think that wouldn't be possible for my type of phone bill.

Dark_Metamorphosis, problem here is, you're too much of a good person.

J/K, that's not a problem xD.

@muramasa - that could actually be a problem... That's my problem right now actually... as they say, anything too much could be a problem

You are twisting my words at this rate or at least blowing this out of the proportions. Common sense says that you don't make your friends my opening yourself to their scams unless you are making an TV show or something where such thing makes sense.


Have you made friends by answering to unknown numbers? I'm asking as otherwise it doesn't sound relevant.

I'm just saying that everyone I possibly meet could try to scam me in some way or another, try to steal my credit card etc.etc (Ofc I don't go around and worry about that). No I havn't made friends by answering unknown numbers but I have made friends by talking to unknown people on the internet for example. For all I know they could try to scam me too. 

I think you put the whole concept out of proportions as soon as you set your mind to that I sent sms to a scammer willingly, now let's just end this discussion please.

Edit: Just wanted to announce to you all that it was not a scammer. Got my phone bill today and everything was just as usual. So that's a relief

Tip: don't reply to numbers you do not recognize.
