MESSAGES ON MOBILE PHONES

ANTHONY W. SCOTT,

Sir, - I wonder if any of your readers are getting unwanted messages of the following type on their mobile phones: "Find out what's in store for you. Call -------- for a live Tarot experience."

Is it not time that some control was exercised over these? Gullible young people could be led into a world that is a best stupid and at worst dangerous.

A relative of mine has been receiving such messages regularly. She rang up the number mentioned to complain but the respondent refused responsibility and the call cost her €10.

She then rang the network company concerned and was told that no help could be given to stop it.- Yours etc.
