I had to post what happened to me yesterday. I got a text message on my cell phone from a local phone number. It had no name association but it looked like a customers phone number. It said "Hi.R u OK?" I replied "yes I guess. who is this?" Well in no time at all I started getting messages sent to contacts in my Gmail account. (I have my cell phone set up to get my GMail.) I could tell because my phone dings when it sends an email. It was dinging non stop. There had been ~ 28 emails sent to my contacts from GMail. Luckily GMail noticed the amount of messages going out in such a short amount of time that it inactivated my account. I reactivated my account with no problem, but I was leery because I had to do it through a text message and was afraid it may all start over again. It did not. In hind sight I should called the phone number and ask if they texted me. The spam that was sent had a link in the email. I have clicked on the link and it goes to an online pharmacy for Viagra and such. As of now it looks as though no infection has occurred on the computer I opened the link on. I just feel bad that my contacts got spammed but there is not much I can do about. So just a reminder, be very careful even with text messages. Oh and I got another text that looked suspicious from someone that I know and it had Chinese type language as the message. Needless to say I did not open it!
