I get texts like these almost daily:

Always from different senders, sometimes they have numbers, other times just these titles.

Anything I can do to stop them?
 
If you have a decent spam filter app, then add keywords to block.

'Casino,£,eur,euro,%,$,bonus,spins,gamstop,free spins' etc.

Oh yeah, and forward the shite to 7726
 
Hi @dunover,

Presumably this brilliant website does not have connections with these companies and can ask them to take me off these lists? I only started getting them when I started gambling - but I am on GamStop and I find them distressing.

Where do I put these keywords please? I am on iPhone.

On iPhone, download 'Verosms' from the app store. Easy to use and free

NO, just the opposite - we have connections to verified licensed sites, not the rogue and scam casinos that these texts pertain to and that indulge in this unlawful marketing.

4 Save

DO NOT DO THAT.

You are deleting your BLOCKED sender's list.

Whenever you block an email address in outlook, that's where the email address goes.
Deleting it unblocks everyone who you've already blocked previously

I just remove them straight away I find it easier then trying to block them.

But alot of it is down to when you click accept on terms on a website there is a lot of fine print about them sharing your deatails with other people.
 
Those who send mobile text messages don't care who your details are shared with and who you are. Their goal is to make you click on ANY of the links they provide, so you get sent to a shite casino they are affiliated with and potentially make a deposit. You can track down that affiliate, but it's pointless.

With spam emails, you can simply follow my screenshot above, and your free money 500% slot bonus will get sent back to a sender (your spammer) or anyone else you wish to.
