Recently a few of my readers have said they're getting these random SMS messages.They don't have any originating number at all, which is odd, although I suspect they can be traced.
This has all the hallmarks of the infamous planned Mojo business that didn't get off the ground. Based on SMS systems overseas, a message is sent out to mobiles within a certain physical area, advertising products / services, often with a click through to a website.
However, these messages don't appear to have a 'call to action.'
Have you received a similar missive?

I got one of these yesterday from "Godfrey's" advertising their sale. If this is the new form of spam it's going to be pretty annoying. I hope ACMA finds some way of blocking this.
This is f*cked!
If I start getting these I will be exacting revenge on the businesses concerned.
