Don't click links in SMS messages claiming to be from MTN.

“Telemarketing and spam are not only ineffective but also harmful. The people involved in these practices operate in an industry that is widely despised and increasingly restricted by law. The laws, including POPIA and similar regulations worldwide, exist to protect individuals from these intrusive and unethical practices. As consumers become more aware and technology continues to advance, the viability of telemarketing and spam will continue to decline, making it a truly useless endeavor for both businesses and individuals alike.”
