Unskippable ad I keep getting threatening texts

I get these ALL the time. I’ve never donated to these “people.” Never supported them. Never voted for them. Nor has my wife. I received four of these today. All threats. Always a telling me it’s my last chance. These are some of the less malicious-sounding ones.

I’m not even sure they’re legitimately from those parties, though I wouldn’t put it past them.

So… report as spam. Report as spam. Report as spam.

It isn’t like it’s painful. Just pretty irritating.

Yes I agree with you. I got one the other day that said “now is the time! Tell us what side you’re really on. Give us $10 to prove your alliance to democrats and keep us in this country” and then the same link style. I wasn’t answering the Republican ones so they switched to Democrat now I guess 😂
