Have just received the following text message from +447769773828

"Hi, you can take a cash lump sum from your pensions,review your old or lost pensions for FREE, confirm your details at www.pension-locator.com"

These people know nothing about me, my name, my age or whether or not I have a pension.

I am obviously not going to fall for this scam but should it be reported and, if so, to whom?

It may just be another firm trying to sign you up for something in the same way as PPI, credit card debt write off, accidents firms try to get you. It's probably not illegal
http://www.pension-locator.com/

There are other firms that offer this sort of service for a fee, but you can get the info for free if you use the pension tracing service
They are coming thick and fast at the minute, ppis, injury claims etc both on house phone and mobile

I'm heartily sick of it as I expect you two are.
another good reason for signing up for one of the call-blocker services - we don't get any of these.
One that worries me is a silent call circa midday everyday
Forward it to 7726 (87726 if Vodafone). They are collating the info to see how to stop all these texts.
