Belgium network hit by SMS hoax

Belgium's Proximus has been hit by an SMS Spam hoax, reports Cellular News.

An SMS "chain letter" has been "inviting customers" of the operator to forward an SMS received to acquaintances. In return, the customers would then receive free SMS messages".

A similar hoax has been circulating in Switzerland, to Swisscom customers. I got one from my sister-in-law, saying that if I forwarded this message to 3 people, I would get 50 SMS free next month, in celebration of Swisscom's 50th birthday.
