Handling escape characters in JSON response in C#

Question

I have a rather simple issue that for some reason I can find a help for using SO and Google. I am receiving a JSON reply that looks like this:

\"{
\\\"data\\\":

Looks like you're getting confused by the value in the debugger. The debugger windows shows an escaped version of the string.

You can click on the little magnification icon to open the string in a "text visualizer" to see the actual value of the string.
