They can collect lots of information thru a server that passes the message thru. Especially the valid contact numbers. Then they can sell those numbers to people use them for many other reasons. That is how you get telephone calls, messages from unknown numbers. They might use it for sending viruses and then they might be able to grab all your personal info.
