I’m getting a ton as well. It’s ridiculous.
Maybe crazier is at my old job it took us like 6 months to get a phone number for automated texting. Seems like someone just opened the floodgates recently.

Yes. They're preying mostly on old people who see a text like that and then respond, then get sucked into some sob

It's why they are so easily scam baited. They know that there is a huge prize waiting for them because there usually is.
