Research direction

Start by tracing the SMS send flow after the user confirms sending a tax SMS, then compare what the app sends with what the provider records. The report names no files or tests, so first locate the send entry point and any relevant tests. Done means one confirmation sends one SMS, displays one message, and results in one charge.

Steps to reproduce the bug

I sent a sms to a tax number for a bus ticket. The app showes 1 sms sent and I received 2 confirmation sms with 2 tickets.

I contacted my provider and it confied 2 sms were sent. That lead me to believe the app sent the message body twice.

Result was that I was charged twice. While the value is small, the issue is big
Please investigate and fix.

After hitting send I was asked to confirm the tax sms and I confirmed.
