Don't reply to scammers, it just confirms to them it's an active number.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't. It doesn't matter. They send them from different numbers.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I assure you it does matter. However many you get now, it can be more.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Oh well that's probably true. But I already get a ton. I don't respond though. In fact, that number was a rarity in that it's the second time they used it.

Shouldn't it be from Kamala to you? Why the opposite?

I think in this case the concept is that you are sending a thank you to Kamala Harris? So it's supposed to make you feel like you will be contacting her directly in some roundabout way. So in that case although the text is to you, the thank you they are requesting you sign is to Kamala Harris.

To weed out people who scrutinize the scam. The same reason scams often have misspelled words. They want people who will react quickly without thinking too hard.

[–] thepreciousboar@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

I knew about that being the reason for grammar mistakes, but I would never think about such illogical stuff

The website seems legit? Maybe not spam

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Well then they're just assholes.
