keep recieving texts from 1121611611

Hi all -

I keep recieving a text from 1121611611 - saying use a proper 10 digit number or short code.

I am pretty certain it is an embedded app sending a msg to T-Mobile [C6606/4.3 which I now use on AT&T very happily] and is not recognzed by AT&T. Has anyone sorted this out already?

I got the above clue from a Samsung thread, but the file structures are different (it was a windows OS) and I can't find them on my devie. Hate to just start deleting.

Thanks in advance

Well if it's a telephone/cell number then it's linked to a scam in the USA - Something about a Government contract and you get charged and if you try to ring it you get 911 emergency in the USA - It is also said to be a Yahoo messaging number

I Googled the number and got a few hits

After trial and error it is the bounce from AT&T that is happening when OneDrive launces after a reboot.

Force quitting the app and then reopening it gets rid of the bad text from some que.

No better answer found and really annoying as I reboot periodically just to clean things up and restore battery life.

Good luck to all.

It is from At&t....Onedrive has nothing to do with it.

In New London and Groton, CT: Should you see a pre 1 in 1121611611 for a total of 11 digits or: 11121611611, and get this as an auto-response error message after sending a text to a CT government office or official, chances are you have tried to send a text message to someone who does not want to receive it. Make sense??
