Has anyone got a message that was sent to someone else.
I have gotten a few that come from people that DO NOT have my number & DID NOT put my number in their phone.

Person A sends person B a TM, person B gets the TM and so do I. (Its never anything good.:bored:)

Its not Spam, its just someone sending stuff and I get it sent to me.

I called Sprint, they said "That can't happen" and hung up on me.:bash:

Better not send CC numbers or anything you don't want me/others to read.;-)

I'm sure it was just a typo by the sender. My GF gets texts and voicemails every few days for someone else. You must have a common number pattern or the last person that had your number must've been real popular.

"Almost,babe~Heather~
" was the 1-16 TM

"I dnt doubt that <~luv,live,life~>
" was the 1-14 TM

I had others last year, but don't have them anymore.

Its not a fat finger typo, Sprint is sending them to the wrong people.

I have never gotten that before but I do get texts that I got like a year ago randomly and that freaks me out.

Why are you so sure they're sending them to the wrong people? I've accidentally saved the wrong number in my address book and send stuff to the wrong people and it took a while before I realized I had 2 numbers for their entry.

i have had sprint for a few years and have never had that happen that i can recall. i have gotten texts that were not to me but were just error on the senders part, nothing more.

If they had my number under someones name then when I TM them back it would show that name. It only comes up with my number, no name & its the first time they have it in their phone (after I TM them back).

I talked to (& TM) the one from 1-16, she didn't have my number in her phone in any way.

i like the phone calls from peoples pockets. hearing the conversation, or when they start driving and all you can hear is the radio.

I TMed the person from last night & the number is not even close to my number.
Plus she hit the reply button, she didn't enter a number.

Sprint recycles numbers, so you're probably getting texts from people who think they are sending something to a friend.

Happens all the time.

My 12 year old neighbor accidentally sent a text to me instead of, I'm assuming, to some boy, it was along the lines of:

"I leik you and think that if you leik me to you need 2 sho me that you liek me and not just talk"

And I was like, WTF? at 12 I still thought boys had cooties.
