Trade Me listing getting SPAM txts?

Recommended Posts

I've just listed a car on TM and received a random txt from "538" asking to email some weird address? Totally spam....

We all know not to reply as that might cost $100 to txt to that number.

But not sure if other Bimmerfolk know to forward these txts on the the Department of Internal Affairs on 7726 (spam)

538 can be legit though? I've gotten texts from a real estate agent through that number ( to book a viewing time ).
