I was just wondering if anyone can tell me about text message spoofing. What I want to know is this. Let's say I send a spoofed text message to one person and they reply to that message. Who does the reply go to? Does it go to my phone or the number that was entered as a spoof?

In my experience the reply goes to the sender's number, so if it's a spoofed number, it will go there.

there is apparently a provider in Australia that provides this service. Does anyone have any details for any of them? I might keep a watch on the SMSC details.
