I did too!!! I want an I-pod 3!! But o don't know if it's a fake!

I've received the same message saying "Hi!" and telling me I've been selected as well, I haven't found anything to suggest it's legitimate so far.

same here. pretty sure its not legit so I just deleted it.

I received the same message.

Is there any way of identifying the company responsible, so we can contact them and let them know that we don't appreciate getting these texts?

I did some research, in case anyone is curious.
