First of all, I would never be on T-Mobile. Not until they get their act together. They've gotten a lot of scandalous news articles printed about their service (lack of) and customer service (again, lack of) and shady salespeople who lie.
I'm on AT&T. The first one I got was spooky. It'was like "hey, I hear you're looking for (some such product I was actually looking for), call me at (number). I asked everyone if they'd sent me a text message. No. Then after I had asked around, another friend said she got the same message - then I figured out it was spam.
I don't get a lot of it, but enough that it's annoying and if it's going to cost me I'm going to be pissed. I heard some story about a cell phone directory that some company is trying to compile, and some group is trying to block it, but that's all I've heard.
