At 8:44am on 4/21, I got a series of unsolicited texts from 944-08:

[there was no website linked or given]

3: Guess What? [first Fun Fact text blah blah blah]. For HELP call 18888906150
On seeing the potential $9.99 charges, I promptly replied STOP
The reply text was:

Still have a charge for $9.99 on 4/21 showing up on my Sprint bill. Will see if Sprint can take care of it today, otherwise I'll be calling them.
