"Hey Rania, let's play golf tomorrow."

After further investigation and some trolling, I found out it was a scam. Larissa from Singapore who is 36 and lives in LA, you were not that subtle.

Technically it was a prank call, but:
"I know you're John. And I'm coming to find you."

“911 what’s your emergency?” This is what some bot texted me after I texted them “wrong number” . If your wondering my phone number turned out to be some old ladies number so that’s prob why I kept getting texts to come to the hospital for something

The randomest text from a person i know was when my friend texted me asking if I'd like to adopt an illegal baby hedgehog.

The weirdest that I've ever gotten from a random number (it wasn't that weird but I haven't gotten a lot of random number texts) was when someone texted me saying something basic like "hey, is this John? this is (random person's name that i don't remember), you gave us your number at (random event)." I just texted back saying that they had the wrong number and that I was not, in fact, John. That was when it got a bit weird. They said something like "thank you so much, we're so sorry. You are such a nice and kind person, thank you so much for being so kind and understanding," and kept just basically saying how nice I was when literally all I said was "sorry, I think you have the wrong number." Then they started asking where I was chatting from. Also it was kinda weird that the kept referring to themselves as "we" or "us," like they were multiple people or something.

Scam texts, claiming that they "accidentally" sent me "confidential information" and I should tell them my name so they can give me a "reward" for keeping their info secret.

I tend to be the one to contact you out of nowhere and so I’ve never gotten random texts.

Recently though I keep getting texts from THE SAME NUMBER where it’s like “Hey Dawn-Marie!”

MY NAME IS NOT DAWN MARIE AND I KEEP DELETING THE TEXTS AND REPORTING IT AS JUNK TO APPLE BUT I KEEP GETTING THEM.


oh and also only fans links from random email addresses. Got those a couple times last year.

It's great that you blocked the number! If you ever receive similar messages in the future, remember to be cautious and let someone you trust know. This way, you won't have to handle similar creepy messages alone.

"You left your foot at home. Will I bring it?"

(No prosthetic limbs here, it was boringly just a painting project for school. But with my ADD and tendency to forget EVERYTHING, this was funny to me.)

It’s not weird or anything just wrong number. This guy Chris would occasionally text my number referring to me as a doctor. He talked of business and life. These two seemed close. I never responded but eventually the texts stopped. The last one was actually quite depressing; he explained his lack of communication recently to the Dr because his mother was in the hospital “of brain bleed”.
I hope that things for Chris got better.

A car dealership guy sent a bunch of pics of cars in the showroom and was asking when I (they called me Mike) might be stopping by. I replied saying wrong number, but good luck on making a sale. He replied thanking me with an "lol" tacked on.

Then about a week or so ago, a job recruiter text me (called me Daniel) and said I'd made it to the final round of interviews and wanted me to call and schedule. I replied back saying wrong number but good luck.
