Vodacom fights scam SMSes

Vodacom has gone live with a new tool to tackle the long-standing issue of scam SMSes

I hate everything being linked to Facebook all the time... a proper submission service would go a long way to solving issues - perhaps the ability to simply forward said scam SMS to a number (no charge) to be added to their DB

It's interesting,but I wonder about the uptake and usage

We want feedback to see what happens,not just a standard "we'll look into it" type of response

I think this is a great idea, except for the part where it's only on Facebook.
That killed it for me. I am not on FB and never will be.

Not really a solution to a problem, more a publicity stunt.

I'm on FB but can't access from work - will get scam'd in the day and find out at night why it happened.
