Open the SMS app in your phone and see how many messages actually work for you? You will find that even though you have registered for the Do Not Disturb (DND) service, you will receive a number of unsolicited sms!
"Your loan of Rs 1 lakh has been approved, click this link for further processing ...", "Rs 1 lakh can be deposited to your account immediately, click here ..." This type of SMS ratio It is increasing now.
If you dig a little deeper, you will find that these types of messages usually come from a company offering different types of financial services. Not all companies sending such messages are illegal and everyone does not intend to steal our data, but the fact is that even though we have registered a DND, such messages penetrate our phones.
The reason is that bulk SMS service companies allow two types of SMS: 'Promotional' and 'Transactional'. Transactional messages can only be sent to people with whom we have dealt with someone. Such message does not interrupt the DND.
There is a possibility that the company sending the above mentioned message is adopting the route of the transactional message. Open such a message and go into its details and select 'Block and Report Spam' option.
This way you will also help reduce this contamination!
