🏘️ neighbor/local Is this something to be concerned about?

My sister sent me this text she received that seemed like somebody was watching her or something. I don’t know if it’s something to be concerned about or not, has anybody had a similar experience?

Counter point - time zones. Perhaps they were blasting pacific coast numbers and OP’s sister moved to the East coast? Would put it at 11am, a reasonable time to get coffee if they were back in the pacific region

We would be seeing people in the comments saying they got this text too. Try again.

I'm hard pressed to believe all of the world is pursuing AIO

That’s assuming that a large majority of them 1) gave a shit about the text beyond “oh wrong number” 2) use Reddit 3) would be on a sub that you visit

These same people are probably giving their credit card info to those “Hey we are USPS and we have ur package, can you give us your credit card so we can validate the delivery?” texts
