I wonder if anyone else has received a text message purporting to be from Evri (the delivery firm), saying that a package is at the warehouse........ (I didn't read the full message, just removed it).
First of all, I've not ordered anything, second the number it came from started with +992 - the international code for Tajikistan!

Edit, my phone has just told me it's moved the 'incoming spam detected' - better late than never I suppose.

Yes I get them all the time,I block them straight away. I get similarly ones from the Post Office too. All scams.

I get lots from them and the ‘post office/royal mail’ Also ones saying I’ve won things where the body of the text appears to be in Spanish. They all get deleted unread.

Thanks, @SAP and @Sarasa - yes, I'm always extra careful.
I only worked out how to delete text messages a few months ago (pressing and holding finger on the message, then option to delete appears).
No instructions came with my phone.
