The company in question claim to have a list of 15 million mobile numbers out of the 40 million in circulation. What better way to increase the amount of numbers on their database than by causing a media panic and thereby getting previously unknown numbers to "unsubscribe"? Maybe this is just my late night cynicism kicking in..

AGREED!!!!!!!!!!
They have compiled their list from phones at point of sale through various retail outlets. As we all know thousands of phones are junked every week. What better way to confirm a phone is still active by getting the owners to phone in to tell you?
