over the past week i've been getting spam texts from 538, 8222 and 'photo' on my 021 phone.

a message along the lines of "your account has been logged into from a new device", then a link to fb.me/

nonsense as i'm not on facebook.

today the 822 and photo txts with links were addressed with the correct account holders name.

anyone else getting these ?

These are not SPAM SMS and have you replied ' stop ' to any of them?
