Yesterday evening, a wave of unsolicited texts from +14352165238 has left many users uneasy. The messages typically address recipients by name and demand a response via obscure platforms like Yahoo Messenger, which is a classic hallmark of spam scams. Ignoring the prompts, avoiding any links, and blocking the number are the safest steps. If the texts claim to be from a bill collector, verify directly with the company using official contact info—not the number that reached you. Report the number to your carrier and consider filing a complaint with the FTC to help curb future abuse. Stay vigilant and keep personal details private.
It appears that someone is utilizing the TextPlus app to send messages, likely an attempt by an ex-partner to contact me discreetly, which I'm choosing to ignore.
