Did You Get an SMS Text Message from TM-GodsGift? It’s a Scam

Share the knowledge

There is a series of SMS text message spams going around right now, from TM-GODSGIFT, that has people wondering. The messages from TM GodsGift say that you have won money – usually in the Coca Cola lottery or the Exxon Mobile draw. It’s all spam – it’s all a scam. You can ignore it – or you can report it. But whatever you do, don’t respond to a message from TM GodsGift.

The messages from TM GodsGift all say something similar – something along the lines of “Your number has won 450,000 pounds” or “You have been awarded 700,000 pounds”. Then it gives you an email address to which to reply to “claim your award” (email addresses currently going around include cocacola.claimdpt@live.com, cocacolaclaim.file@live.comm and exxonmobil43@hotmail.com).

Of course, if you reply to these scammers by email they will attempt to, well, scam you.

So, first, do not reply to these people.

Second, take what steps you can to make your cell phone harder to spam by SMS (what you can do will depend in large part on your cell provider). Third, if you choose to do so, report the spammer scammers.

  66. @ mithun,
    i’m not sure what your point is with that little rant, but “auntie spam” is a real person running this web site as a public service, to help people, keepimg them from being scammed by the legions of thieves and bunco artists infesting the internet. there is no need here for “the government to step in”. we’ve got rather too much of government “stepping in” already and only making things worse, not better. “auntie spam” is simply a good citizen trying to help others.

  67. I JUST HATE ALL THOSE UNWANTED ISSUES YOU ARE FOOLING THE CONSUMERS SO THE GOVERMENT NEED TO TAKE IMMEDIATE STEP ON IT TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEMS

  71. please read what “aunty spam” has written, there is no money, it is a scam, a swindle. nobody is waiting to give you millions of pounds sterling, dollars or many lakhs of rupees, they send messages at random, like a fisherman casting bait in the water, hoping to hook you as the fish. do not, i say again, DO NOT give them any of your personal or banking information, do not respond to them in any way. you work hard for your money, keep it in your pocket where it belongs.

  74. kirankumar.k.s,
    there is no draw, no money to be won, it is a cheat. do not respond and most certainly do NOT give them any of your banking information

  75. b sri venkatesh,
    the same answer as to “prabhu” above. do not respond, they are swindlers trying to cheat you.

  76. i got sms about that u had awarded prize of money for cell number by coca_cola i cant understnd plz give information about this message……?

  77. prabhu,
    if you are asking for advice, what to do is ignore it, it is a thief after your money. do not answer him, he does not mean you any good.

  78. My apologies,I forgot to mention that the email indicated that the award was from Exxon,thus the actual connection to the original article.

  79. good show mike, you’ve saved yourself time, money and aggravation. win all around.

  80. I just deleted an email saying I had been awarded $500,000.I did not respond to it since the phone # provided was not valid.
