Don't let anyone have your cell number for anything. Someone I thought I could trust used mine and signed up for Predicto.com without my consent or knowledge. This is a game scam that loads your phone with text messages costing 20 cents each plus an initial fee of $9.99.
I received my phone bill that added up in thier worthless text messages of over $11 for one month. These people need to be stopped from scamming people.
If you are a victim, call 800-360-0518 and INSIST on speaking to a supervisor. (They will try to avoid this, but be emphatic and persistent) Get their name, mark down the date you called them and what they tell you. You can insist they credit your bill. I did and had to be persistent, but they assured me I would receive a refund. If you insist, you can get your number blocked so that no one can use your cell number again.
It's sad when you can't trust your own family members like I did. I hope this helps someone not to get ripped off by Internet Scammers.
