Just not funny any more.
If we're going to make you a great offer, well send you a TXT or PXT ourselves. We'll never do a "Pass it on" TXT campaign to get our message across.
So if you get a TXT about some fantastic deal that needs you to pass on a TXT to qualify, it's a hoax. Don't be part of the problem by passing it on. Just hit the big "Busted" button, and delete it.
We take a very dim view of hoax TXTs, because they waste our customers' time and money.
Take a look at the hoax TXTs and emails we've seen over the last few years
It's easy to spot a hoax. They always fail the "Yeah, right" test. They're usually about a deal that's too good to be true, or an early warning that every mobile in the world is about to blow up or be shut down by a virus, or that you've been randomly selected to win millions of dollars.
Yeah, right.
They often try to sound important by using impressive-sounding statistics and technical terms, or claiming the story has appeared on a reputable web site.
We've got a section on the Vodafone forum where customers can report hoax txts.
You can also take a look at some of the hoaxes and scams our customers
have posted.
Otherwise, just delete it.
