I am receiving spurious SMS notifications for tweets sent by people I
am following, but do not have notifications turned on for. These are
*not* retweets, I've even asked a couple of the original senders to
check and see if the item had been retweeted, and the answer was no.
Furthermore, I only have my account (@nazgul) set to receive text
messages for about four users, and none of them retweeted these
messages. Possibly related, I have a friend who turned off *all* phone
notifications over a day ago, and is still getting random new text
messages from people she follows but didn't set to send her
notificationqs.
Examples:
I confirmed that these were not retweeted by anyone for whom I get
notifications (or in one case, by anyone at all).

Others I haven't had a chance to investigate, but which it seems
highly unlikely were retweeted by anyone who sends me notifications.
