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.

If you have an iPhone go to

>settings >apps >messages

and turn on the message filter setting. Anything that is a promo, spam, or unknown sender is separated from your regular messages.

This didn’t stop mine. It filters a few, but I regularly (like daily) get ones to mine inbox that say shit like “DEMS PASS BILL TO ALLOW ILLEGALS TO MOVE IN WITH YOUR SISTER” or whatever tf they’re on about. It’s obnoxious. I report and block every. Single. Day.

[u/Pro-Patria-Mori → u/mmwhatchasaiyan]

Yeah it doesn’t stop them but it categorizes them all in one place, which makes it easier to block and mark as spam.

No, what I’m saying is that most get filtered to that spam text folder but others still come through to my regular texts on a daily basis.
