I don't get why you're blaming Nokia. All you needed to do was enter in your cell phone number ANYWHERE on the web (heck, not even on the web) and they can send you those annoying texts. You fell for it, it's not the phone's fault.

I agree with the person above. After being foolish enough to respond to the sms message, they responded with an email asking for my details and with the mention of the promotion being licensed by International Association of Gaming Regualtors (IAGR), I thought I would check up on this and they state on their home page that they DO NOT AFFILIATE WITH ANY COMPANY AWARDING ANY TYPE OF PRIZE OR MONEY. SO...NOKIA HASN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG! I received the exact same message from the exact same number on the exact same day! Just because it mentions the name Nokia in the text, you automatically assume that this comes from Nokia. In this day and age ANYTHING CAN BE USED TO SUCK YOU IN! It's called a SCAM! Do your research before you start pointing your nasty finger! Oh and unless you have some solid evidence that connects this sms message directly to NOKIA, YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WILL LOSE THE COURT HEARING! Shame on you for even thinking, that a company so big could be foolish enough to take part in any such scam.

If you look at the emblem, its distorted, which means its FAKE! And then if you type in nokiamega.com, which is where you got the email from, you can't get onto it. Which makes it even more obvious that it is a scam. Still think you have proof? I know what I'm talking about when I explained it to you.

hola quiero informar que el mismo individuo que parece en el reclamo del premio de nokia y que aparece en coca cola, recientemente se a puesto en contacto conmigo hace menos de un mes con el mismo artilugio de que se trataba de un premio por elección de correo electrónico al azar, que había ganado 500.000 libras esterlinas junto a 8 personas mas correspondiente al premio total de 4.800.000 de libras esterlinas premio que otorga la firma por el 162 aniversario de su creación ... y te envían una planilla para llenar y reclamar tu premio, ahora bien lo que no entiendo porque este señor ANDERSON JOSEP MAXWELL, me envió su cédula del reino unido e irlanda del norte escaneada donde aparecen los datos la foto y numero de identificación junto a fecha de nacimiento ... Al principio parecía tan real pero le erro porque hace referencia al 162 aniversario y según la historia de wilkipedia nokia fue creada en 1865 osea que a la fecha da 165 solo en eso se equivoco, porque a la verdad hasta el logotipo de nokia y el resto de los formularios hacen creer de una veracidad impresionante...

Hello to every one that are honest and trusting human beings. This morning I recieved a sms from this nr [protected] saying that my telephone number has won r250 000.00 and that my ticket nr is 0166n. I had to phone [protected] between 09h00 and 17h00 to get the details. I then phoned and the person that answered told me to buy r480.00 worth of airtime which would be used to activate my winning ticket nr. I find this kind of fraud and deception repulsive and I think these people should all go to hell. They prey on poor and innocent people, take what little they have and then dissapear. These people should remember that karma isn't something to play with and that what you do to others will come back to you seven times worse. This is just not acceptable and the security services in our country and nokia should start to do something about this. I hope by the new rica system that is now being implemented these devious and ruthless people will be brought to justice.
