Got a spam text from your own number? You are not alone

People are reportedly getting spam texts from their own phone numbers.
These spam messages are mostly affecting Verizon customers, but users on other carriers have also reported the problem.
The spoofed texts show up as bill payment messages promising free gifts.

If you recently got a spam text from your own phone number, you are not alone. The problem is reportedly widespread and affects many customers in the US (h/t The Verge).
