Is this a scam
I received a text thanking me for my business. When I clicked the link it said that I had won a TV. After taking a survey and told me that I have to pay shipping for the TV and asked for my information. Is this a scam?
If it seems to be good to be true, it probably is. It sure sounds like a scam to me.

I ordered them and they came with an iphone charger, legit case and when I looked up the serial number, it says "serial number replaced". However, they work great!

I received a text from Tmobile, which I cannot now find, right after I signed up for Tuesday app. Worded that Tmobile valued me as a customer and if I take survey, I can win a "thank you" prize. I took the survey and was presented with a list of prize options; I chose ear pods because it was early worded that they were a prize and I only pay cost of shipping. I authorized a one-time charge of $9.99 for the shipping and received very cheap, non-branded product a week later. 2-3 weeks afterward, I got an email saying, "your trial period has expired and you have been billed the remaining amount". My credit card statement shows the $9.99 charge plus a $109.88 charge. I'm furious and happy to return unopened pods, but it's difficult dealing with scammers. HELP!

While working through the forced 5g phone upgrade (almost 10 hours of nightmares on the phone and at the store) they tried to add Samsung watches to the deal. They said it was absolutely free. After I pushed them they said that there would be a ten dollar charge. I couldn't get them to come out and say if it was a reoccurring one. Super shady. They also kept adding taxes and reoccurring but credited payments phones even though the promotion said that there would be non. That's a sneaky way of locking you in.

Hello, every now and then, I receive text messages from T-Mobile regarding T-Mobile Tuesdays with the #GetThanked.
I don't know if they're legit, as I am a new T-Mobile customer & don't know if this is a common procedure for them?? So, I was wondering if anybody else received these? They look like this:
<#> 2818 is your T-Mobile Tuesdays code. Enter it in the app to #GetThanked. r3LJoc8uXZB
Just for reference the text are coming from this number # 3340?
I'm sure this is probably a scam, so please don't judge! 🤫😁
I just figured I'd ask and put this up here to help any other T-Mobile customers not get scammed. If you have any info it would be GREATLY APPRECIATED ‼️
Warmest Regards,
K💋

Hi out there to all of you.
I came here today to let you all that use Iphpones and Android devices that you can grab a program called SpamHound for Iphone and Android devices which allows you to block text messages that contain certain keywords and url’s.
the reason I posted this information if because of the latest unblockable text message going round that claims your bill was payed and that you won a prize and tries to get you to clink on a link which can be dangerous.
if you want in SpamHounds settings you can set it to save or auto delete from the device the messages you block by number or keywords.
you can also set it to save all your settings in your gmail account…
hope this helps you out with receiot of all the soam
p.s. remember if you set it to auto delete all blocked mms’s and texts first time somethinggets blocked its saved into spam box untill you manually delete it
hope this helps you all..

@Nanadi I got the same one. I took the survey and it *looked* like T Mobile, but the website to get the watch was smartfashiondaily.com. Something felt off, so I did a search for that domain. It had a pretty low rating of trustworthiness, but no real proof that it was a scam site. Still, it's not worth it to me to find out the hard way.
Also, I should have noticed this earlier, but this text went out to 20 numbers at once. Red flag. 🚩 Looking at it more closely, I can't believe I even clicked on this in the first place. 🤦🏼♀️
