Both times reported it to Sprint and they credited me back, but now I see some more of those texts on my current usage on Sprint.com and I won't be able to do anything about them or check them out until the billing period has ended. First time this happened I think Sprint said that these texts were sent or received from like korea. I was like WTF, this don't make any sense! The first time it was like 25 messages, the second was like 4, and now I see a current usage of 6. I have tried to google this and search through many forums to see if anyone is having the same issue but no luck. This is my first thread on this matter and I hope someone has an answer or maybe some information on this matter.
This was happening to me but it was due to some text subscription i had (horoscope, weather, news, stocks, etc) which were coming in from international sources. I was charged also for texting to fandango for movie times as their number is located on some island off the atlantic ocean. I cancelled all subscriptions and changed my number. never happened again.
