About 10 to midnight on May 3, 2010, I received a text message from 76363 with the text:

and then 5 minutes later, a second one with the text:

Another 5 minutes passed and another message came reading:

Last Chance! Reply YES to confirm ur Movie Trivia now or enter [redacted] online. Hurry, ur bonus credits are about to expire. 9.99/mo

In each case [redacted] is a 4 digit number, consistent through all the text messages. I don't have an unlimited texting plan so this is wasting my

I also got the three as listed above today - completely unsolicited.

I am getting the same the one received by dangermike. I don't have any idea how they got my number. I replied with message 'QUIT' but in return I got message "You are not subscribed to any of our services". Any idea what is going on here! They are eating my minutes and money. If Verizon won't do anything, I will quit their service. I am already on month-to-month contract.
Thanks!

I was just reviewing my cell bill because it was higher than usual and saw a premium services charge from downlow.com or the text number 76363. I have no idea how or why I was charged the $9.99 but I am really upset. I went to the website but it's just a bunch of links so I think i'll dispute it with my cell company hopefully they'll refund me.

I keep getting messages from them too.....i texted back :stop: and they say im not subscibed to anything. i didnt sign up for this or anything. please help!!!!!!!!

was just checking online for jobs and then the messages started coming i want them stopped this is wrong for sites to do this

HOW DO I BLOCK THIS PERSON!!!!!

Reply with stop. You should get a canceled subscription message.
If that doesn't work call 877-373-6363.

I had the same texts. I responded "stop" and was told I didn't have a subscription. So, I called the 877 number and demanded my number be blocked from their system. That's all you have to do. Apparently they pull phone numbers from social networking sites and things of that sort. Not cool.

I just replied STOP and it says I am now unsubscribed. I don't know how I got subscribed and am VERY annoyed that this is allowed.

I have received a message from 76363 amd i dont know how i got added to their list and will not mind if they stop trying to scam money from people

i'm getting slam by these people & i don't like it one bit

I got the same 3 messages as well:

I also don't have unlimited messages, and I have NO idea how they got my cell number. I do not post it on social networking sites. Hopefully the string of 3 messages is all that will be sent. If not, I'm definitely calling the number as suggested.

I'd like to know who is selling our private information to these scamming companie

I've sent them now 2 messages to stop. My phone number is registered on the Do Not Call list also. Somewhere, Some how this gets tracked to some individual or corporation. Let's face it, Someone is collecting $9.99/month for this.

I just got off the phone with Verizon. I've been a 10 year customer and they know my history and how I use my phones.

When I talked with the account rep this morning he said that there are solutions.

You can get free "Premium Message Block" on all of your Verizon lines by asking for it.

The Verizon Rep said that anyone can sign you up by just mis keying a cell phone number (if it happens to be your number).

Verizon has flagged my account to review it for these messages and charges.

Call your provider and get "Premium Message Block" on your lin

I followed the advice and texted STOP to 76363, and immediately got a reply that I had been unsubscribed from the movie trivia service and that I would get no more messages or charges.
