I keep getting threatening texts

[u/Lock_Psychological]

I get these ALL the time. I’ve never donated to these “people.” Never supported them. Never voted for them. Nor has my wife. I received four of these today. All threats. Always a telling me it’s my last chance. These are some of the less malicious-sounding ones.

I’m not even sure they’re legitimately from those parties, though I wouldn’t put it past them.

So… report as spam. Report as spam. Report as spam.

It isn’t like it’s painful. Just pretty irritating.

Interesting. I like never get spam calls but I also never answer the phone. I guess years and years of not answering the phone unless I know and want to talk to someone has paid off. Same with texts. If I open it and it seems suspicious, I mark it as unread and report

I just keep my read receipts off for everyone, even family.

But yeah, I’ve been getting at least a few spam calls/texts every day for months now. Which is weird, because not only is my phone contract not under my name (family plan, it’s in partner’s name), but they keep trying to reach “David.” I’m a woman, and my partner, while he is a man, is not named David. Lol

I just report it and move on, sometimes block when the same number reaches out several times.

Someone else probably used your number then

It’s very possible, yeah.
