**** SMS's
I am convinced that MTN sells customer phone numbers to people who send you those \You have won $350000 in Omega millions"****s.<br> I have had a Vodacom number for 8 years and I never get these.<br> I get a Tab on MTN for 4 years with a number I have never given out (because the TAB does not receive phone calls but I get spammed with these messages all the time. At least 2 a week. <br> <br> I also get these messages about some points that you can win stuff which I see as a **** for me to send SMS's so I get more points. They offer an opt out but IT IS A LIE! MTN is an organization full of *****! They just want you to send SMS's so they can take your money. <br> <br> This is another one of the reasons why I will not be renewing my contract with MTN. I will also inform anybody who asks my view on MTN about this. """

MTN South Africa's replyOfficial
03 Sept 2015, 07:40Hello foamy38,
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.
There are quite a few bogus claims out there that relates to winning some sort of prize sometimes monetary, sometimes other.
Please be very careful and do not take heed to these hoax sms. Ignore them for the most part. This is not an MTN related product, and I regret to inform that we have no control over this.
They have started to spread like wildfire amongst many subscribers of all networks. Never under any circumstances send your bank account details to any 3rd part via email / sms or even telephonically.
Warm Regards,
Willem
