Oh SMS/MMS do a few things that make blink tags look utterly benign... http://www.dreamfabric.com/sms/alert.html
May be possible to send as a flash message that immediately displays blinking, and that depending on phone, the recipient doesn't get any option to control or save, e.g. forced to read before doing anything else, no history or storage of message text once read.
But mail readers with javascript and animated GIFs still have them beat overall.
E-Mail readers / text message readers epidemically trust the sender too much sometimes, thinking the recipient would rather be annoyed by more rich content (or pwned) than disappointed that rich content shows as plain text.
