We just received the same garble text messages. His/her phone company should take the number away!! Obviously this individual should not be in possession of a phone. This is obviously not criminal but it is a good class action law suit and the phone provider can be pulled down with the infamous (416) 555-2121

I've just started getting the same thing.  I'm on a Virgin phone, which uses Bell's network.I Googled the number and found an obviously fake car listing (check the seller's address):http://www.autodeal.ca/category/1041/DENALI/l ... li-SUV-AWD.html

I got the same thing on a Samsung Instinct.  And only my dad has my number as it is brand new.  Got for in a row - same script as above.  Very odd.  Plus I have free incoming text - so i doubt that its a money grabbing scam by providers.
Very strange!  Even more strange is the 3 websites with this discussion about the same number that doesn't exist!

I got the same thing today... two of them, my sister tried to send me a picture to my Samsung phone. I'm also with virgin.

it's wierd text because someone tried to sent u ã picture or mms. the phone number is ã general number from ã rogers network .

Information:I got 4 of the same encrypted messages.  When I tryed texting the number i recieved this message: "Your message will be sent to landline phone number (416) 555-2121.  Pour envoyer message en francais au (416) 555-2121, repondez f a ce message."  So this is from a home phone, so this is really confusing..  It sounds like so far its a home line phone that attempts to send pictures through your carrier and onto your phone, but for some reason during this proccess the picture gets encryted.  Purhaps a computer program designed to piss people off?  Im not sure, but im not liking this.  If anyone has any anwsers please email me at bretster_15 @ hotmail.com.  I gotta get rid of this.  Oh and i am on virgin, on samsung link .  thanks :)
