I got the same message too:

From: A message from AT&T

The longer message text will go here... Mary had a little lamb. The lambs name is Frank. Frank likes to eat grass and roam the hills. That is Mary's little lamb.

Weird.
 
See nothing weird about it.

I guess you're not familiar with every child's favourite goodnight story "Mary's Little Lamb".
 
I just found another weird message on my account.

FYI, My name is George and I am the only one on my account.

I have one as well. Actually I went through my messages and also have some from 10/10/2008. Five or Six from that time period.
 
I found 26 messages dated today and another 67 (give or take a couple) going back to June 2008. 😀
 
Logged into my account to check, and they kindly told my today that they will be closed for Christmas... for 2009.

In observance of the holiday, our Consumer Call Centers will be closed on Christmas Day, and will re-open at 9am local time on 12/26/2009. Business Call Centers are open. Additional customer service options, including self-service, are available by calling 800-331-0500 or 611 from your wireless phone.

I thought I was the only one that got these, lol. Logged in to my account this afternoon and was greeted with 88 messages, some of which go back to 2008. My personal favorite is "Mary had a little lamb. The lambs name is Frank. Frank likes to eat grass and roam the hills. That is Mary's little lamb."
