Constant ads coming in as messages with round white circle with plus sign

[Trippix]

Droid 4, with 4.0.4 op system - I'm getting messages (10-12 per day) advertising games on Google Play Store - most all have an icon like a white circle with a black plus sign. Help! They are making me crazy! I have a notification app on my phone so I know when I missed a message or call, and this silly thing is going off constantly. I put a spam blocker on the phone but that didn't stop this. Thanks

Is it possible that you've installed a free app which advertises by SMS? Some apps actually do that. They'll say they don't have ads in the app, but they'll keep advertising through messages. I'm not sure if that's the case here.

Install an ad detector like Lookout Ad Network Detector.

Do you know for sure that they aren't actual text messages being sent to your cell number?
