- never signed up for anything like this,
- never donated to or signed up for emails from the DNC, et al.,
- political texts like this come all the time, and
- I hesitate to reply “stop” because I don’t want them to know this is a live number (is my instinct here outdated/inapplicable?)
Hey there we’re the krazy kaucasians for Kamala…
Wait a second, let’s just go with White dudes for Harris
You ever see the show Modern Family? I want a new show starring the husband from that show, about a wholesome totally not racist white guy who goes about life COMPLETELY oblivious to how his actions are percieved by other people.
Almost like a not racist version of Mr Magoo.
that could be any of the 4 husbands on that show, to varying degrees. you’ll have to be more specific.
The white one
Honestly, having watched it at some point, I’m fairly sure they mean the one that isn’t an old dude with a young latina trophy wife and is straight.
All those husbands are oblivious to a lot of shit, but that one is the absolute most oblivious lol
For sure don’t in any way respond, just report spam and block the number. Lots of these things are phishing attempts, trying to get you to give personal information (or even money), and aren’t connected to the things they mention.
Lots MostPretty well all of these things are phishing attempts.Follow parent’s advice.
Never, ever, ever respond, even reverse-uno.
Otherwise, you’ve helped them.Just to note - white dudes for Harris is a real group.
I still wouldn’t click the link, I’d go direct to their site if there was an interest there, just noting that it is a real group.
Yep, I looked them up just to see but, like you said, the fact that it exists doesn’t mean anything. I didn’t find anything (good or bad) associated with that phone number - could be spoofed.
There’s no “Report Junk” on iOS Messages unless it’s an email address texting you.
Every message I have received on my iPhone from someone not in my contacts has this after that latest message:
Not true—I just successfully reported this text as junk. It tries to auto-detect spam, and coming from an email address is one of the signs of that, but not the only one.
Really? I wonder why. Though I’ve always assumed the one on my phone was from Verizon, not the app or the OS.
You must have seen the older phishing attempts with caller’s named “Potential Spam”
Not sure if that technique still works but you can still mark callers as junk/spam.
Got 9 in one day. If they include a name it’s never mineWhat the fuck… how can people in the US live with something like that? And how does this not massively hurt her chances?!
how can people in the US live with something like that?
We’ve had a number of deeply corrupt individuals in charge of our federal department meant to police this sort of thing.
And how does this not massively hurt her chances?!
Even odds are that it’s meant to.
Most don’t get that many. OP is likely targeted in the systems. My guess is that he votes often in the primaries and has shown interest elsewhere, like by signing up for communications or donating to or volunteering for campaigns.
I just checked my spam and I’ve received four political texts in July.
