AIM Text Message Spam?

Posted in Misc, Tech by justin on the July 24th, 2007

Just today, I’ve started to receive spam messages (those same “buy this stock” crap messages that come in via email too) on my iPhone through text messages from the AIM gateway.  I never signed my phone into AIM, so I’m not sure what’s going on here.  I’ll be calling AT&T and updating this post with my experiences.  Since I have a limited number of texts, this could prove to be a dealbreaker between me and AT&T unless they can get it to stop.

    Get them bastards! I have gotten spam SMS but it was sent from one of the bazillions of free SMS sites. I don’t think incoming SMS counts towards the total allowed texts, but then again, who knows.
