Scam ?

[Twentymac]

A old buddy from school days has contacted me on facebook, we were on facebook chat this morning and asked me if i could send a txt for him

he said to do this :

"text ; 163331 10126696 3364 to 68282 its just to activate my card like"

looked like a scam to me ?

[Twentymac]

I'd have to go on the scam route considering phonepayplus (the new name for icstis) has no information whatsoever on the shortcode 68282.

Unless I'm missing something that's the new 999 number

Why did you add him on Facebook then?

Use common sense. It's obviously a scam.

Is it bad that I can remember that number straight off?

If you have to ask the question 'is it a scam' its more than likely a scam..
