This company is some sort of "Premium Text Messaging" service that solicits through unwanted text messages. They sent me a couple text messages and each time I deleted them as spam. I received a charge today on my Verizon bill for $9.99 for premium text messaging. It appears they have some sort of scam going where it is likely they are billing 9.99 a month for some sort of rediculous text messages. I went to their web site and they claim they will stop billing immediately if you opt out but if you have already gotten your bill they will charge you "just one more time." If an unsuspecting person does not catch this charge right away, they can potentially be billed 9.99 at least twice. They charged my bill on June 26th at 1:40 in the morning and it is now July 14th and I have not received anything in the way of services that would have made me think I was receiving a paid service. This tactic would likely lead them to the "initial" and "just one more time" billing. Clearly no one would pay 9.99 a month for that. I will be reporting this to Verizon tomorrow but other who get a DrText text message should watch their bill for unauthorized charges.
