How funny, I've had like 3 of those already since I've gotten my phone. It says to "stop" those message reply back, but honestly I'm kinda afraid it'll ad me to a list or something. I gonna keep ignoring them for now lol

I just got another one of these texts minutes ago. It's the 2nd or 3rd time. I just delete them, but I'm sure I'll get more.

Just found this on XDA:

"Had this issue before when I had an LG Voyager. the "//BREW:0108f3d4:GCD " notification message you're receiving is an indication that you were previously using a mobile device that was a Media Center/Get It Now compatible device and that you previously downloaded Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless (BREW) applications to your previous model phone. To get rid of this turn off the phone and remove the battery and leave it out for 2 minutes then put it back in and turn it on, after its on call *228 and select option 2."
