Facebook Alert SMS NXSMS

Hello,

I have an iPhone 4 and for the past few days, I’ve been receiving text messages saying that I’ve logged into Facebook, or that someone has logged into my FB account. The message says that if I want more info, I need to click on the rest of the message. However, there’s no continuation to this message and I can’t click on it.
The sender of this message is NXSMS, there’s no associated number. It just says NXSMS.
I tried saving this contact to see if the number would show up, but nothing.
I attempted to send STOP to stop these messages, but I received an error message saying that the message could not be sent.
I haven’t received my bill yet, but I’m sure these are premium-rate texts and that my phone has been hacked.
I’m subscribed to Coriolis (which, by the way, is the crappiest operator out there), and they told me they couldn’t do anything.

Do you have a solution to stop this?

Thanks in advance!

    Hello everyone, after struggling for several months with the same problem, I finally got a competent operator who was able to resolve the issue, and it's so silly that I blame myself for struggling so much!!!
    Actually, it's nothing more simple, go on Facebook with your phone and then press the button on your phone that brings up your menu (usually at the bottom left for recent touch models like Samsung) then press "settings" and you will see a "notifications" or "messages" field that is active. You just have to deactivate it. I just did it... I almost changed my number, I was even receiving it at night! I hope this helps, good luck everyone

    Hello,

    Same problem for me with such a pro...
    Between 5 and 10 texts a day so it's pretty annoying!
    NXSMS : a new unknown device logged into your facebook account......

    Thanks in advance for your help!

      What happens if you delete your Facebook app?

      I don't have a Facebook app, I have an old phone ^^ I don't even know how to connect to the internet with this thing, and even less if it's set up correctly for that
      But I do have a Facebook account -_-

      Your Facebook account must be linked to your number in one way or another. Try changing your password first. I'll take a closer look at this tonight.

      Okay, I checked and I never registered my mobile number on Facebook. What's strange is that I still have my Universal Mobil SIM card which works and on which I don't receive any nxsms, whereas on my new SIM card, which is not fully activated yet (I'm not receiving calls or texts from my contacts for now), I do receive these nxsms.
      I’m changing my password anyway.
