But know that they may use multiple attempts to the same number or email in order to see if it really is dead. So blocking and deleting one message doesn't mean that you are off the hook from that individual or group. Something as innocuous as "hi not sure if this is the right number or not i might have written it down wrong. If u met me (anyname) aka me lol at a bar downtown on (anyday) let me know. Thanks" could an be effective social engineering message that would provide them with the confirmation of an active number. If you suddenly get a slight increase in spam messages and emails then it could be a clever ruse to gather information but could also be an innocent mistake or you were so drunk that night you cant remember what happened. Or if like myself it's time to add another layer to your tinfoil hat and setup perimeter defences.
