Today my wife and I both received our first iPhone spam from the same person! I hope this isn’t a new trend, but if you think about how easy it is to send SMS spam, then it might be a growing trend. Unfortunately there’s no way to block spammers from SMSing you, which can really be an issue in the future.

There are a few ways to send Messages/Spam to an iPhone other than with a phone

Lets say your number is 555-555-1234

1. iChat - Send a message to +5555551234
2. Email - 5555551234@cingularme.com
