12/24/2022 0 Comments How to silence messages on a mac![]() Does it make a difference? Heck no! I still get bombarded with these texts day and night. So, according to them, they are trying to do something. I am going to try to attach some screenshots. I have AT&T ( I read all companies have this), and I forward the text and number to them which I believe goes directly to FCC. ![]() It seems as they have been increasing in frequency lately and yes, I get the same message 3 or 4 times (at least!) from different numbers too! I have received texts messages in the middle of the night too! Once it was around 3:30am and scared the crap out of me as I have a kid away in school. Hi! I am here for the same exact reason! Looking on why there’s a filter and still you get the alerts! ![]() In case you don’t get alerted about replies to her post: ![]() I understand there are international boundaries and laws to contest with, but still, I'm shocked that there isn't a more global movement to end this very prominent issue. It's top of the list of FCC complaints and yet still no solution has been found. It's harassment and a clear gateway for enabling criminal activity. I'm shocked that government / telecommunication companies / cell phone providers and manufacturers have let it get this bad. Personal note: The amount of spam text and phone calls we (the public) receive daily is unprecedented. Apple has made it possible with phone calls, now I'm hoping they'll complete the functionality by adding the same feature to unknown texts/iMessages, as well. It's only doing half of its intended job, as far as I'm concerned. The filtering is doing a fine job of keeping them separated, but the fact that I can't have them automatically silenced is a bit of a let down. I'm worried it's only a matter of time before I accidentally somehow click on one of the malware links. From what I can tell, there is no end to the amount of phone numbers they have in their arsenal. For example I received a text at 6:48AM and the same message again at 9:33AM from completely different numbers, both with the same text message body but with a new malware link. These are Robotexts and spoof numbers with Malware links in the messages. Is there somewhere where you can see that without sending a response? Blocking individual number is a waste of time, they've moved on to a new number as soon as they send the text. ![]() I'm not sure if they are iMessages or not because I never respond to them to see how the text goes through. ![]()
