“URGENT: Your pension could be underperforming” SMS Spam

12

Arriving just minutes apart from this spam and probably related, these SMS spamming scumbags are back with another pitch:

URGENT: Your pension could be underperforming and could leave you with less then you thought on retirement, reply REVIEW for a free review now, STOP to opt out.

The sending number this time was +447895882070 although this will change as numbers get blocked.

If you get one of these, you should forward the spam and the sender’s number to your carrier. In the came of T-Mobile, O2 and Orange the number to report to is 7726 (“SPAM”). Vodafone customers should use 87726 (“VSPAM”) and Three customers should use 37726 (“3SPAM”). Hopefully the carriers will act if there are enough complaints.
