anonymous iMessage?

A friend of mine received a disturbing iMessage that was sent anonymously. How is that possible? Is there anyway for it to be traced back to the originator? There was a number associated with it, but it wasn't a phone number. XXX-XXX vs a 10 digit phone number.

TIA

This was most definitely a message directed to her that was not random spam or junk.
