No information about the base website, connection is not encrypted and website isn’t confirmed. Most likely tracker link of some sort. Might try to find out your device info/ip or something like that
nah free car bro
Seems to legit ad. Probably someone has given wrong number or the number’s previous owner has subscribed those.
Definetly a scam. They pretend to be finnish and number can also be official. Never click any links from txt messages or else.
Yes
What do you really think?
If in doubt, do nowt.
Yes it is
Anything Skoda related is a scam
def a scam, this sort of stuff happens time to time
You probably already got The answer, but it’s an ad. Not a scam.
100% dont click
I got a text from Telia saying that my password was about to expire, and that I should follow a link and write my old password and give a new one to solve it. So, obviously I contacted the operator to let them know that there’s a scam being conducted with their name, trying to get into people’s accounts. Their answer? No there isn’t, that’s how their system works 🙈
I thought the ”omalaak.fi” was some hacked ”oma lääkäri”-site.. 🙂
Flubot, just ignore it
I don’t know, I’m from Spain
Just reply “esto” and your number will be removed from their advertising list.
It always amazes me how companies manage to get a simple ad campaign to seem like a scam campaign. At least they didnt use bitly if thats worth anything
Doesn’t matter if it’s legit or not. DO NOT CLICK IN ANY LINK.
Finland Battles ‘Exceptional’ Malware Attack Spread by Phones
People saying it’s ad, since when did Laakkonen use “omalaak.fi” url? Looks like scam.
It’s a phishing scam going to android phones that puts malware on your phone if you click link
Hei! Kyseessä ei ole huijausviesti, vaan Laakkosen tapahtumamainos. Pahoittelut alkuun, että olemme virheellisesti lähettäneet sen numeroosi. Laittaisitko meille sähköpostilla puhelinnumerosi osoitteeseen [markkinointi@laakkonen.fi](mailto:markkinointi@laakkonen.fi) niin poistamme virheellisesti järjestelmäämme kirjatun numeron, joka kuuluu sinulle. Kyseessä on todennäköisesti näpppäilyvirhe kun asiakastietoja on tallennetttu. Pahoittelut vielä kerran! Yt. Carita, Laakkonen markkinointi

Most likely a scam.
I can check the links in a test environment to see where they go but don’t recommend opening them otherwise.
Edit: Links go to laakkonen.fi which seems to be a legit cars dealership so it’s basically just a commercial.
Looks like an ad
Yep, Finland is being hit hard with them at the moment. This is a good reason why our phone numbers should be private by default.
My friend as messages from 3 different ones. I got one
It’s a scam, don’t click the links, and just block the number.
