Why is my samsung 3 gusto receiving jumbled messag...

Correct Answer!

I'm getting the same problem, have several times over the last two months. Sometimes one person's texts will mainly be fine, then I'll get gobbledy-gook on my Samsung flip phone. Sample: @H@ [two non-standard characters]@ @ [pound sign]@H... Etc. Lots of @ with other characters of very sort.

This simply shouldn't be happening.
