If you downloaded ios5 for your phone, then you automatically got free messaging to other iphones. You type a message and send it like a normal message, but it shows up blue on your phone, to indicate it was sent using the service and thus not using your text allowance.

Well somehow, the people receiving those type of texts from me don't know who's sent them as they appear to come from a strange number, yet when I receive a text from them it shows up who sent it to me.

Anyone know what's happening?:S
