Anyone know how to track Vtext
Someone keeps sending my boyfriend text messages about me!!!!
👿
Since Vtext allows the sender to enter any information at all into the reply field they are all from different fake numbers.
Does anyone know of a way to track this?
I called Verizon and they said the only option is to change his phone number or to block all message. Neither is a good solution for us.
Thanks in advance

If you register for the vtext website, there is a text blocking option that allows you to block messages from the web. This will stop anonymous messages originating from the vtext website, but will still allow messages from cell phones or e-mail addresses.

For Verizon to identify the source of the messages, you would need to issue a subpoena. If the ...

I would suggest doing the vtext.com blocking.
That type of site can be trouble. I sent a message to a tmobile user friend of mine from "T-Mobile Customer Service" and said his account was about to be cut off unless he made a payment. So he called and made a payment. Then I sent him another message saying his phone was going to be turned off anyway. I did this all while sitting at a computer right next to him, on April 2nd! Then he started to call them and told him about the joke. I thought it was hilarious at least.
