What should I do re texts on husbands phone?

[endoxana]

My toddler insists on using my husbands and my phone. On Sunday he inadvertedly managed to get into my husbands text messages so I took the phone off him. I noticed a message saying 'top 10 kinky countdown on living TV'. It was the only text from this number and the number was not a known contact. Feeling slightly puzzled by this I checked his phone the following day and he had received two further texts from this number both asking if he'd called.
I am now suspicious so I phoned the number and a young womans voice answered and I hung up. It was still bothering me so I asked my husband about it last night and he laughed and said he thought it was a dodgy text akin to 'would you like a penis extension'! He then said ok let's phone it I bet it's some weird number that doesn't work! We rang it and it went on to a orange answer machine!
I think I have a naturally suspicious nature. I don't think my husband is having an affair but I know that prior to me he had several woman he would wine and dine at the sametime!
My question is should I phone this woman and ask who she is and why she is texting my husband and father of my children or should I let it go and trust my husband?

I wouldn't call or text her, for you all know she thinks your husband is single, if she even exists. He is the one you should have a problem with and speak to if you're worried.

Oh yes, Reality is right.

Google the number.

Good thinking never thought to do that. However, there is no contact with this number. What does this mean?

If it's a pesty number, then it's probably been logged at whocalledme.info/

might be worth a try

christ if it were me I'd investigate till I'm satisfied don't let it go till you know speaking from experience that is...

Thanks Shirley but nothing there either.
My husband has just spontaneously brought the whole thing up again and is laughing at my reaction to it. I said I think we should call the number again and he said go ahead!
I think I'll leave it but hold onto number just in case!!
Thank you all

Can you get someone else to text the number with a random message and hopefully someone will answer? Or call the number for you?

Beware if it is a porny one - I called a number from my ex's phone which did turn out to be a chatline and now I get filthy texts every other day

I am tempted to phone and ask who she is and why she is texting my husband and father of my children. I would have no issue with her but want to know if he's been in touch with her.
However, I think I'll leave it!

Good plan, that way madness lies. V sensible

Check the number first though. You might find you're paying adult rates!

Hi, can I ask a related question. My H gets e-mails from all sorts of penis extension, viagra firms. I never do. Does this mean he has contacted these firms, or looked at their websites? He used also to get Skype contacts from call girls.

No I get them on my googlemail account and I'm really really not interested in viagra or a penis extension :( They started after I joined FB

I've no idea about the Skype calls, I've never had Skype.

I think with skype you need to set up your security properly otherwise you will get random people contacting you. (Ages since I've used it though so can't remember exactly what to do)

I get loads of emails and occasional text's from dating sites and sex lines even though I have never used either.

Check your phone bill to see how much that short phone call cost you!

Skype ones come through anyway I think.
My email is spamming viagra to people on my behalf and I have never googled porn or viagra. So somtimes it can be innocent (innocent whistling while walking away)

BaggyAggy, no it doesn't mean that your husband's been looking at dodgy sites. There are such intelligent ways of targeting people online now that even a mention of anything remotely gender indicative like football, periods, DIY, or key words like 'wife', 'girlfriend', 'boyfriend', can flag you as a target for certain types of spam - especially if you have a gmail account; gmail is especially bad for this.

Also, if you create an account with any website when you're buying something online then your email address is passed onto -spammers- online marketing agencies so that they can target you with emails. For example, if your husband bought a power drill off doityourself.com, that would be enough of an indication of his gender to warrant his getting bombarded with penis enlargement emails and offers to buy natural viagara, etc...

It's really nothing to worry about. I get the odd email now and again asking if I would like my penis to be bigger!!

Sorry, how rude of me, I completely failed to address the OP in my post above.

OP, it doesn't sound like something that would automatically set alarm bells off for me. I can completely understand why you'd be at first, but it sounds to me like some really ill-contrived text marketing from Living TV. I think the suggestion of googling the number is a good one. Going on what you've told us, I wouldn't say you have reason to be suspicious, but then the best advice is to always trust your gut.

OP, it sounds like spam.
Often the call-back number is at a mahoosive premium rate so they make money on every suspicious recipient.

And I've never used porn-sites or prostitutes but I still get lots of spam both in my email and skype intrays, so no need to worry about those, either.
