    ***** outta control man. I get 4-5 a week I’d say. More than not it’s some shtick about CBD or you have a package that was/wasn’t delivered and click this spam link to see status.

    It is almost comical, but I guess some people fall for it.

    Got one at 2:30 this morning asking if i needed fast cash.

    Robo calls have gone down to about zero thanks to the YouMail app, but it has no way to stop the texts. The worst is when you get one that has 20 other people with your same prefix that says 'reply stop to be removed from this list' then every idiot starts replying 'stop'.

    "[not my name], are you still interested in selling the property at [some random address]?"

    Only one I get, and it's only 1-2 times a month, thankfully.
