Strange text message

I and two other family members received the following text message a little while ago:

From: 5001@vtext.com (First National Alert Call 8568741255 For Details)

I figure it is from a spammer but did not find anything obvious from a Google search. However, I did find that the phone number is listed as the Fax number for CPI Capital in Voorhees, New Jersey.

"vtext.com" is a text messaging service provided by Verizon Wireless.
