My colleague recommended me this service, Mobik.com which is a web service for sending free SMS worldwide. I used it once last month and I anticipated that my number will now receive some spam-sms from the domain. Fortunately I received none so far.

The site states that they get revenues from advertisers (which also appears after you click on the submit button). The bad news is, you can only send SMS if you’re from the region or country where they have advertisers.

The good news is, of course, they have advertisers for Malaysia. So Malaysians can use this for free. I’m sure big countries like US, UK and Singapore are covered too. So you can send free SMS.
