Someone mistyped a number somewhere and now my phone number is associated with a random person. Every election cycle I start getting texts that I never consented to and I have no recourse because it's always a different number and seemingly different organization sending the texts.

Same here. Some startup ceo misentered my phone number somewhere and now I get a few calls and texts a week looking for Jonathan and trying to buy accounts receivables or loan money.

It’s frustrating and there’s no way to get off their list. It’s always new companies too.

I’d pay $5 each for an AI honeypot that just occupies their time by talking with them and emailing them to waste their time until this becomes unprofitable.
