strange text


Yes If you receive a SMS on your mobile ndicating that you have won a
2
night stay in the Druid's Marriott You should delete this text
immediately and not reply.This is a fraud using a device, that once
you press #90 or #09 they can
access your "SIM" card and make calls at your expense.
