Is it just me or is there a lot of other people getting unsolicited ads via their mobile phones? These ads aren't the usual pushed ads from mobile service providers via their special numbers. These ads are using regular mobile numbers (like 0915XXXXXX) and advertising stuff like car loans, money loans, real estate deals, special "seminars", etc.

I find it rather irritating. Although I have a mobile call/sms blocker application in where I can add the unwanted ad sender's number, a new ad would arrive via a new number. I could set the software to reject all unknown/unlisted numbers but it would end up rejecting legitimate calls/sms that are currently unlisted in my mobile phone.

Currently the number of unsolicited ads are relatively manageble but I wouldn't be surprised if it would become similar to the scale of spam email in the near future.
