Since most of the telco got unlimited call, why don't we gang up together and call them non-stop. Bombard them non-stop.

Really no point in blocking the numbers... from what I received almost on a daily basis (sometimes twice in a day), it NEVER comes from a repeat number... they just use the number once... as a side note, I'm still trying to figure out what this spam is for:

those spammers actually signed up with the unlimited sms plan with any telco, can be maxis, digi or celcom.

then they will use an app to blast the spam sms to thousands of phone numbers.

when telco noticed that this spammer already exceeding the daily limit for the'unlimited sms', telco will block the spammers numbers. that is why we will never get the spam sms from the same numbers.

the spammers will register a new number then..

how to control this?? I think telco already do their best to block these spammers immediately when they detected the high volume of sms sent out to people like us..

you would think the telcos would be able to trace who pushed the sms and investigate.

I did tried to contact the phone number in the SMS as well, but they just said they will fix it,
but then I receive again. Sometimes they even send me SMS at 4am midnight!
I tried PM the Maxis guy in Lowyat forum here but they told me that they can't do anything.  bangwall.gif

by often,, these 3rd party buy out from local telco's, other superstore (tesco, aeon, etc). In db has more than 100k++ people numbers which they will blast out the SMS using GSM. by spending rm0.003 per sms or maybe more abit.

The most is Telco C because they can be partners with other SMS companies (unlimited) unlike Telco M & Telco D only max can be 2 partners.
So those companies tied under Telco C will blast coz there no filtration as per current. Not till they emphasize or control CMP or CIBS. As for now, is not controlled unlike those time when PCM was enforced in Celcom and managed by CMP.
