Update to Optical Express Spam Texts

This is an update to the spam texts I received from Optical Express [one, two, and three]

I emailed Optical Express on customerservices@opticalexpress.com the following message

Dear Sir or Madam,

I keep receiving unsolicited texts from Optical Express, the latest was received on 3rd February.

The unsolicited texts were offering an entry into a free prize draw, or offering me laser eye correction.
The numbers these unsolicited texts were sent from was 07860030840, and 07478724511

I have never had any products, or dealings, with Optical Express before I received these unsolicited texts.

I would like to know where you got my mobile number from, and I would also like to know how to prevent any future unsolicited texts.

Thank you for your help

I received an email from them the following morning asking for my mobile number so that they could assist me further with my enquiry.

Following this, this is the email I received from them
