Married? Not a problem for Nikki.

I got one of those a few weeks ago from "Trump" asking "Who should I pick for my VP? Please don't say Rosie O'Donnell"

Made me chuckle.

> It also appears they figured out my male member has reached MAXIMUM POSSIBLE SIZE since I bought all of their supplements.

Congratulations!

(I think...)

"There are guys on YouTube that do cyberattack these criminals."

This one is particularly good! The guy hacked their CCTV cameras and was able to watch and record the scammers reactions when they found out what was going on. He actually spotted some identifying landmarks outside the windows, identified, the building, figured out what floor they were on, and hacked into a hallway camera showing the door to their suite! So he had the complete address right down to the suite number. That is some GREAT sleuthing!

Of course, none of it will stop them. The police and authorities all over the world have bigger fish to fry -- like people using the wrong pronouns or taking kids away from parents because mom and dad deny "gender affirming care."

Be careful what you wish for. It gets really tiring pushing that wheelbarrow around.

When you receive these unwanted texts, reply with this immediately;

SERVICE ERROR 305;
MESSAGE DELIVERY FAILED.
FURTHER MESSAGES WILL BE CHARGED TO YOUR ACCOUNT

It may take several tries but it works for me.

Nah, I’m guessing all that stuff is from Conservative, Inc. A once-great American movement has become a handful of grifters.

[Carriage Hill]

Hit reply and send them one of these...

[Zathras]

Text was supposed to go to Laz.
Q: “ Would you hit this?”

[silverleaf]

Same

And I am not a registered Republican, have not been since 2021

Block the number. Some use multiple numbers. I ignore any call that doesn’t show a contact name unless I’m expecting a call from someone not already in my phone. Land Line? Haven’t had one in 15 years.

> That is some GREAT sleuthing! <

Yes. And simpler measures can work as well. One guy on YouTube has a list of phone numbers belonging to scammer call centers. That’s easy to get as the scammers usually provide their numbers to their intended victims.

He then call-floods the centers. No scammers can call out. And no victims can call in.

This one guy is saving more Americans from this theft than the entire federal government.

Maybe it’s Zelenskyy asking for money…..💰

"It's not just Nikki. Every Republican candidate is doing it - Trump, Don Trump Jr., DeSantis when he was in, Scott. It's incredibly annoying."

I block them all, but then they just send more via different numbers. And every so often, I get phishing texts, which I block and report as junk.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

iPhone Settings allows you to block calls from numbers not in your contacts list. I have to turn that off to get expected calls from businesses or customer support. Then I have to remember to turn it back on. It’s a great feature, but having to remember to turn it off and then back on is a PITA.

It would be far better to gibbet the spammers.

[chopperk]

Nikki is female Joe Biden.

"Now, if you report certain content as junk in most email services, after a couple times they go strait to junk."

I don't access my emails from my iPhone, only my MacBook Air. I block all the senders in my mail program, but they just use different emails. Then there are the emails that have no "from" address in them, so you can't even block the sender. I've taken to creating rules in the program's settings, in order to block certain words within the emails, so the program will automatically delete them when they show up.

Damn straight, exponentially.

I tried that strategy decades ago and it’s a fool’s errand. I also added “Block this number” to my cordless phone and it was a fool’s errand, too. I filled up the cordless phone maximum of 200 numbers to block and there was no way to deleted the oldest numbers first.

“NoMoRobo” and other services help a lot.

I hate how you can hit “Delete and report Junk” but your provider and/or Apple don’t seem to learn, no matter how many times you hit it.

Political ads and other non-commercial junk text/e-mail/calls are exempt from anti-spam laws, do not call registries, etc, or have workarounds for the laws that do apply to them.

There are apps to filter these texts, but you have to pay and spend the time to set it up.
