I received an unsolicited text message referencing this number this afternoon, purporting to be from Fox 45 TV in Baltimore, advising me to turn in to their 10 PM news. It also provided a short URL (which I of course did not click on). I have not provided my cellphone number to anyone for the purpose of receiving text messages, and of course no one is supposed to be using unsolicited cellphones for telemarketing purposes. On that basis, it's possibly a scam. I have left a voice mail with Fox 45 advising them of situation and asking them to call me back.
This is the second incident within a week of receiving this kind of unsolicited text message; last week it was a phishing purporting to be from Sun Trust. Am getting pretty disgusted with lack of controls to keep this kind of thing from happening.
