Ever hear of spoofed caller ID?
Ever hear about a system in place to certify the number is actually coming from the correct party? Not all carriers have signed on but as the top comment here said, it's their responsibility and tmo at the least has some pretty decent spam protection/blocking in place, they also have a number you can forward texts to and they will analyze them and use them to improve their spam filters.
Try being witty elsewhere, here you just look like a fool.
How do I find the number to forward texts too, I have like 3 a day from new numbers each time
This was the first result when I googled it.
