WhatsApp upgrade SMS - be cautious

[faniebraai]

No. We are just calling you ignorant for saying that people who fall for this are " a special kind of retard".
As others have said, people who fall for something like these kind of scams are not tech savy. So does that make them retards?

Why would you trust an sms from a company that delivers a texting service. Come on. Seriously.

Yes I know there are people that believe in this schit. I live with some of them. So yeh, I just called my mother in law a retard. And most of my friends. And my mother. And my father.

Even one?

Is there even one WASPA service that provides a benefit to the purchaser? Isn't every last one of these a scam? Are not all these "services" just sucking the life out of society, useless parasites that should be exterminated?

Because "texting service" knows your phone number (when you start using whatsapp).

Profits, and there's no one to stop them (i.e regulations).

Yes there are, it's a few bad apples which give everyone a bad name.

This constitutes fraud. So much so, that when I received mine I immediately made screenshots for further reference.

Any updates on how to block all existing and future content subscriptions on Telkom Mobile?

Telkom Mobile

When asked about its self-service options for WASP subscriptions, Telkom Mobile said it does not offer an option for WASPs to charge for subscription services.

The operator previously told MyBroadband that it already has a double opt-in system in place, but has since said that it will be making an announcement involving its recently launched Event Billing soon.
