The past few weeks I've been receiving random iMessages that are clearly scams. I tend to open the message and click through to block caller. I have just done this and then got a notification that my credit had dropped by £4.50, I did not open any links. I really don't know how to stop this, I use two tier identification for my bank and  paypal so don't want to have to turn off iMessage. Can anyone help?
