I received this message this morning
I have not had any tests for this !
If my other half saw this message wtf would he think?

Sorry just tried to add a photo but it won't let me. It was a message from nhs no reply saying your test for syphillis on 28/03/21 was negative

Any number or link with the text? If so, they’re probably hoping you call/click and fall for some type of scam.

Sounds like a fishing scam or something

whyamidoingthisamimad · 20/10/2021 12:21

Nope no link

Just don't reply and delete either someone has put an incorrect number when doing the test or its a scam.

Cas112 · 20/10/2021 12:22

If no link then probably a case if mistyped phone number

I think the gp surgery could of mucked up it has happened here where they texted neighbour for our Covid jab, so it does happen. It was a automated system apparently. However I really can't see anyone texting such sensitive information from a doctors. Or it's a click able scam thing.

RaisedByPangolins · 20/10/2021 12:38

Given the date on it, it’s a scam. Just delete and block

NearLifeExperience · 20/10/2021 12:38

Have you looked at the email address? Does it look official?

You can pay to get these texts sent to people. (Not that I think it's a nice thing to do.)

STI test results can be sent by text if negative.

Likely a scam, check the number it’s from

Why is your first thought what he would think?

I'd assume it's a wrong number.

I'd assume it's a wrong number.

Because he could quite easily assume id been sneaking off getting tests done!
