Text Spam from (714) 267-2734

If you’re wondering who does the the number (714) 267-2734 belong to, don’t bother looking. All you need to do is to file complaints to FCC because such unsolicited text messages violate CAN-SPAM Act.

You should file form 1088G to report this violation. File a complaint on FCC site http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm

You can also call 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-2255-322) voice; 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-8355-322) TTY.

The text reads:

Do you owe more than $10,000 to the IRS or state? Our tax experts can possibly REDUCE or ELIMINATE your back taxes. Reply IRS to see if you qualify!

Text-Spam does violate the Communication Act of 1934.
