I received text messages from braincooliq.com advertising a service that sends you 3 messages a week of fun facts for $9.99 a month. I sent a "STOP" reply each time and I would receive a text saying, "You are not subscribed to any services on 94408". Then got a message saying, "Welcome to Brain Cool IQ!" Another "STOP" message ended my "subscription" and a charge for premium messaging was on my bill. Verizon (my wireless carrier) informed me that a site called mistymobile.com billed me and when I emailed them for a refund they replied they no longer owned the short code 94408. The site they gave me to contact is braincooliq.com. It is now obvious that this is a scam set up to bill you for trying to stop a unwanted text from being sent to me.
