Anti-spoofing? Macro Kiosk again!
A Screenshots reader provides fresh evidence claiming that he had been scammed by a Maxis external content provider (ECP) in the months of August and September.
To be exact, unsolicited SMS still happened on September 18, one day after Maxis chief operating officer Jon Eddy Abdullah announced that it has operated "the platform (that) was designed to block unsolicited short messaging services (SMS) -- such as spam and spoof SMS -- from reaching the operator's postpaid and prepaid customer base".

The ECP involved, evident from the online itemised bill above, is listed among the Maxis Elite 18 ECP partners that Nikolai Dobberstein announced in June.
Let the G and Halim Shafie have one more night of sound sleep. Details, together with the victim's testimony, are to come soon.

Jeff,
Following my earlier posting, it seems that the same short code provider mentioned here operating in the largest local bank internet platform for sending SMSes via their internet, has not been able to send any of my sms to any mobile provider 012, 013 or 106, despite having deducted 15sen for each transaction. How la?
