    The 7727 short code is not tied to an app or other business. It is a short code used to report spam text messages. 

  • Hi, what would this picture being sent to 7727 be?

    7727 is the phone number that you can report spam messages to. That line probably sent a screenshot of a possible spam message to 7727 (SPAM).

    That’s not necessarily accurate. None of these people even know to text it to 7727, It doesn’t support that statement. If you use a Particular third-party texting app to send text photos it will send that exact same code. The majority of the time if you’re seeing these on your significant others usage details it’s not a good thing. They’re trying to be sneaky.. Sad but true

    You don't need to know how since if you click the 3 dots on the top right side the drop down menu let's you report spam and sends the message to 7727 with any attachment.

    Also @HeavenM is the mod of this board and should know a thing or two.
