Anyone who does as they asks and sends them their details deserves every bit of heartache they get. No one just gives a random person money. Next they will be asking for you to send them money so they can release this cash to you. I want to know where they got my number as I don't give it out on anything.

I just received the same sms from same phone number  indicating that I had been selected to receive US1,500,000.00 etc. etc. Surely someone could trace this phone number and stop this scam

I dont undarstand

Hi Guys I got this message too it was from (416) 357-3217, hillsfamily102 @ gmail.com.I think we should share all the numbers and email that we received on this scam online to warn the others.

I'm on a one month holiday in australia. therefore i bought a prepaid-card from vodafone australia and just recieved that message. I have given nobody my number because i am only using that card for internet connection. So i guess vodafone has a security problem or they use generated numbers for their calls.called by:(416) 318-4065Text:You have been selected to receive a donation of $1,500,000.00 USD by Mark & Cindy Hill.
