Textual Harassment by "Make A Plan to Vote"

[Gabriela]

Is anyone else receiving dozens of texts from these arse portals at makeaplantovote.com? I've told them to stop a dozen times and I even get the confirmation text saying that they will stop, but then they keep right on sending from different phone numbers. I've reported them to the FTC and the FCC multiple times and I AM on the Do Not Call list already.

It's freaking outrageous.

At least it wasn't textual assault.

I got a bunch of texts too. I just ignored them, but it was strange because even though I didn't have the numbers they were sent from as contacts in my phone (obviously) the texts were in my "texts from contacts" list, not the "unknown senders" list.

If you've still got the texts, please PLEASE report them to the FCC and the FTC. I want these people sanctioned. The number of texts I got was outrageous.

Can't. Anyway, it won't help. Every single text comes from a different number.

You can block numbers if you have an iPhone. I don't know about Android.

Luckily, I didn't get those kind of texts. But I get really silly texts from time to time. I just block the number everytime.

Can't block on Android.

I think it depends on your service provider, though, actually. I once had an iPhone and they told me I couldn't block numbers.
