Dodgy O2 More texts

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

Getting texts from "O2More" but with links to Moreo2.co.uk. Smells like a scam to me...

address comes back to a

BLUE PARROT FILMS

19 LATCHMERE CLOSE
RICHMOND
UNITED KINGDOM
TW10 5HQ

which is linked to

GPF MEDIA CONSULTING LIMITED
1 CASTLE ROW, HORTICULTURAL PLACE
LONDON
UNITED KINGDOM
W4 4JQ

Director a Robert Bergman mob 07782 324 970 (perhaps he needs some spam?)

the postal address is also linked a struck off company called

IT SERVICES & CONSULTANCY LIMITED.

along with a company called Jjra Technologies Ltd director a "Mr Anoop Joy"

A London address full of dodgy business people, how odd!

Anyone any further info?

Perhaps o2 might like to take a look since they're using the o2 name and targetting o2 customers?

The correct address for O2 More is:

http://www.o2more.co.uk/

so I'd say the one you've been sent is a fake.

You can also forward the text to 7726 to report the spam

Yeah I figured as much but what also concerned me was that it actually came up as from "O2More" i.e. there was no phone number. How do they do that?

Good plan pickles!

I think they must just spam a whole load of numbers.  I got my new phone other week and had not given my number to anyone and I got a PPI spam text?!

[Anonymous]

this is just unacceptable.

I specifically opted out of any spam texts from O2. a few months back, they texted me saying "looks like you opted, out, if you want to receive promotions, you can sing up bla blah blah" really O2? I ask you to stop spamming me and then you spam me telling me how I can get even more  spam?

And now this stupid stuff from O2 more, which I never  signed up for.

You are incompetent.

There should be a "Stop" prompt in any O2 More messages.

Yep, I agree. I opted out, got the confirmation and they are still trying to entice me into the world of gambling addicts. What next? Will they be offering me drugs? Prostitutes?

I don't like being directly marketed at. Some products are free, and you pay by being an ad target, but I pay for this service service from O2 so they have no excuse.

I really hate marketeers...

I am sorry to hear someone is using o2more as domain to spam people with text messages. This domain was temporary owned by the company mentioned above, when setting up a service for Telefonica o2 about 5 years ago. It has since not been renewed and o2 does not use it either as far as I know. Please contact o2 or ofcom to let them know about this abuse so that they can investigate it and hopefully find a way to stop it.
