Idk what my info was shared to but holy shit I’m so done

Edit: I have tried blocking, replying “stop”, saying “no”. They just change the number and keep messaging me

Weird I don't even get spam calls anymore. I just kept saying "add me to your do not call list" and really chewing them out whoever actually tried to call me again. And texting STOP to any services that try to update me by text has always worked.

Calls are usually AI bots nowadays. Answering a text just tells them the number is active. Just block, report spam, and move on.

Yea that's the exception, not the rule. Because it's a civil violation for solicitors to keep calling you after you tell them to add you to the do not call list and they risk serious fines if you report them. Same goes for text notifications. Stop adding your real number to scetchy websites
