upi.com Wrote:WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Suggestive text messages embedded in a new cellphone cost a Winnipeg, Manitoba, man his relationship when his girlfriend discovered them, officials said.
The 49-year-old man, who didn't want to be identified, told the Winnipeg Free Press his girlfriend of more than two years found the messages on the phone and a break-up fight ensued.
He said he didn't even know the Samsung Virgin Mobile phone was text-equipped, but the three messages that came with the phone cost him the relationship.
They included "Booty call," "Where u at," and "Be there soon," the newspaper said.
He said Virgin Mobile advised him to file a written complaint.
He also showed the messages to staff at the Future Shop store where he bought the cellphone.
"At first, we didn't believe him," said sales associate Mike Ford. "But when we looked at a couple of the same phones he bought, and found they all had the same messages ... we all felt horrible.
