My husband and I have recently been receiving these messages by text on our cell phones. I researched the phone number and found that it was sent from xxxx @ 208-704-1154….Her address is xxxxx,
Coeur d Alene, Idaho. The previous message I received I didn’t pay much attention and deleted it. I’m not sure who it came from. I will save this recent message in my archives. I did not pursue this message.
I hope you can find out the source and stop them.
