Hello everyone,

Just to inform you that if you receive a message like this:

sender 07XXXXXXXX
"Relay line hello your package ref M625423 is available since 22/04/13 For information call 06XXXXXXX"

Do not reply and report it as spam via 33700 or through certain applications offered by operators, such as SFR antispam.

That's it, spread the word around you.

Have a good day.

EditModerated phone numbers.

If there is a problem, there is always a solution.
Don't forget to mark your topic as resolved :)

Hello

Useful info.... (and quite crucial... when you see the haste with which people give in to any solicitation.... and only think about it... afterwards!)

Nevertheless, logic would suggest that someone receiving this text message is in one of two cases:

1) They are not expecting any delivery, having ordered nothing.... in short: a message to "ignore" (report and/or delete)

2) Coincidentally, they are expecting a delivery.... In this case, it is preferable to track the order on their customer account on the relevant website (as well as the shipping if a tracking code for the package is provided)... In short, once again... be wary of the text even if it may seem legitimate...

When I place an order online, I check my customer account, and I might allow the website to inform me by email... (more easily verifiable than an SMS...)...

Hello Xileh

I was not expecting any order
After some research on the internet, I didn't find any reported doubts via SFR's anti-spam application

Certainly, I am just passing on the information to prevent some from getting trapped
