Default Mobile Phone Spam is Here to Stay

http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=technologyNews&storyid=2006-03-01T191508Z_01_SP70212_RTRUKOC_0_US-TELECOMS-SUMMIT-MOBILESPAM.xml

"Fumi Ishii has changed her mobile phone e-mail address several times and once spent a month tracking down her tormentor, but the spam keeps coming. "I found the sender's contact information after a lot of research, and I called them up and complained," said the 57-year old print firm owner. "They started up again, but this time I can't figure out where it's coming from." Spam, or electronic junk mail, typically offering dating services, pornography and get-rich schemes, has moved beyond traditional e-mail and into text-messaging and mobile e-mail."

I don't think I have ever gotten any spam like this. Obviously we all get regular Email spam but I think this refers to SMS type spam. Let's see what your experience has been. I'm making the questions general just to get a feel. You can post how many you get if you want.
