Just got the same text. I agree it must be a scam. It's from an Arizona area code and I'm in Phila.

My number is more private than my neighbor's time spent in his bedroom each night......so I know for a fact that this is 100% scam.

I live in CA, but have a 215 number from Philly. AT&T is my provider, and I also just got this scam text. Soo annoying! If you are with AT&T, you can forward the text to 7726, and they will be notified of the SMS spam.
