Monday Update: SMS Spamming
Written by Anurag Bhateja on April 20, 2009 – 7:22 pm -Those who read my article on spam SMS marketing which is undertaken by many people in India must be aware how angry I was on that day. Although I am not feeling that bad today as I have to think on other things also as of working day. Now as the day is off, I can post the numbers and SMS right here on my blog.
1. Number: +919357896958 : TEXT MESSAGE: Get Reliance unlimited broadband + 75rs calls free in just Rs 499 monthly rental. Call- 9357896958. (Directly Reliance head office. Chd ). (Message received on 20th April 2009 at 01:33:32 PM. That working hours and he disturbed me during working hours.)
Now if I believe Mr.9357896958 than he is an employee at Reliance Head Office Chandigarh. Being an employee at Reliance he must be aware of TRAI rules and regulations over SMS marketing and knows that he can not send spam messages to anyone like this. If he is not aware than I reliance should feel ashamed of not training their employees properly. THEY DO NOT HAVE RIGHT TO SMS.
2. Number: +919888009998: TEXT MESSAGE: Advertisement in all News Papers, Siti Cable, My FM, Internet(WWW), Industrial Projects etc. at WAHDERA Advertising, Sec 42-B, Tel.5034563, Mob: 98887-10554. (Message received on 20th April 2009 at 04:01:05 PM. Again disturbed during working hours. I was in a meeting at that time grr.)
Now people who are advertising via WADHERA ADVERISING please note that they are spammers and can build a wrong impression of your business. They spammed my message box and that can also be your advertisment if you opt for SMS marketing. Horreble! right?
